    Most oxidising agent is:

    A)  \[{{[W{{O}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\]      

    B)  \[{{[Cr{{O}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\]

    C)  \[{{[Ce{{O}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\]      

    D)  \[{{[Mn{{O}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The yellow chromate ion, \[CrO_{4}^{2-}\]has a tetrahedral structure. On acidification the chromates condense to dichromate and dichromate is good oxidising agent so, \[CrO_{4}^{2-}\]is most oxidising agent among the given compounds. \[2CrO_{4}^{2-}+2{{H}^{+}}C{{r}_{2}}O_{7}^{2-}+{{H}_{2}}O\]
