NEET Chemistry Reduction Potentials MCQ Question
Reduction potentials of some ions are given below. Arrange them decreasing order of oxidising power.
ClO₄⁻ > IO₄⁻ > BrO₄⁻
IO₄⁻ > BrO₄⁻ > ClO₄⁻
BrO₄⁻ > IO₄⁻ > ClO₄⁻
BrO₄⁻ > ClO₄⁻ > IO₄⁻
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The oxidizing power is inversely related to the reduction potential. The higher the reduction potential, the stronger the oxidizing agent.
