The weakest oxidizing agent among the following is

A

`O_(3)`

B

`F_(2)`

C

`KMnO_(4)`

D

`Cl_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`E^(c-)._(O_(3)|O_(2))=2.07V,,,,,,,,E^(c-)._(F_(2)|F^(c-))=2.87V,`
`E^(c-)._(MnO_(4)^(c-)|Mn^(2+))=1.51V,,,,,,,E^(c-)._(Cl_(2)|Cl^(c-))=1.36V`
`:' E^(c-)._(Cl_(2)|Cl^(c-))` is the highest , `Cl_(2)` is the weakest oxidizing agent .
