Rank these species by their ability to act as an oxidizing agent. Cl2, I2, Mg2+, Fe2+
first consider the standard reduction potentials
Eo Mg+2/Mg = -2.372
Eo Fe+2 / Fe = -0.44
Eo Cl2 / 2Cl- = 1.36
Eo I2/2I- = 0.54
to act as oxidizing agent , the reagent must undergo reduction
so
higher the reduction potential , better the oxidizing agent
so
the order is
Cl2 > I2 > Fe+2 > Mg+2
