    Strongest oxidising agent among halogen is:

    A)  \[{{I}_{2}}\]                      

    B)         \[B{{r}_{2}}\]                   

    C)  \[C{{l}_{2}}\]                    

    D)         \[{{F}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Fluorine has maximum reduction electrode potential \[({{E}^{o}}_{F/{{F}^{-}}}=2.87\,\,V),\] hence it is easily reduced into \[{{\text{F}}^{-}}\] and consequently \[{{\text{F}}_{2}}\] is the best oxidizing agent.
