Given that `I_(2)+2e^(-) rarr 2I^(c-)," "E^(c-)=0.54V`
`Br_(2)+2e^(-) rarr 2Br^(-)," "E^(c-)=1.69V`
Predict which of the following is true.

A

`I^(c-)` ions will be able to reduce bromine.

B

`Br^(c-)` ions will be able to reduce iodine.

C

Iodine will be able to reduce broming.

D

Bromine will be able to reduce iodide ions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Since the reduction potential of `Br_(2)|2Br^(c-)` is greater than the reduction potential of `I_(2)|2I^(c-)`, so `I^(c-)` ions will reduce `Br_(2)`
