if all d species r in their std states wich of d follwin is d strongest oxidisin agent ?
a)Br-
b)Zn(2+)
c)Co(+3)
d)Fe(+2)
i can do this q if i wer given d ECS ........bt no values r given so plez tellme d oncept 2 solve such q's
1stop dat guess wrk damn!
if i say no then sumone else will say d othr option ........
neways itz bettr if i post d answer itz c)
reason:
oxidisin agent means will itself get reduced means will addiion of elctrons in it is easy so do dat by ..... elctronic configurations
cheero~
1as it has the maximum positive charge ithe electron will face maximum attraction and it will get REDUCED easily than the others!!
i posted (b) as i had a doubt about the p-e attraction
1yes but then due to charge differences , the electron will more easily get accepted by Co3+
further bromine cannot be the answer as the electron will face repulsion from its negative charge
