given `E_(S_(2)O_(8)^(2-)//SO_(4)^(2-)^(@)=2.05V` `E_(Br_(2)//Br^(-))^(@)=1.40V` `E_(Au^(3+)//Au)^(@)=1.10V` ,brgt `E_(O_(2)//H_(2)O)^(@)=1.20V` Which of the following is the strongest oxidizing agent ?

A

`Cr^(3+)`

B

`Mn^(2+)`

C

`MnO_(4)^(c-)`

D

`Cl^(c-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
As per data mentioned,` MnO_(4)^(c-)` is strongest oxidizing agent as it has maximum standard reduction potential value.
