    Among the following which is the strongest oxidising agent?                    [AIPMT (S) 2009]

    A) \[5.65\times {{10}^{-10}}\]

    B) \[6.50\times {{10}^{-12}}\]      

    C) \[5.65\times {{10}^{-13}}\]

    D) \[5.65\times {{10}^{-12}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Key Idea Element having higher tendency to get reduced or to accept an electron is strong oxidising agent.  
    Fluorine is the most electronegative element because electro negativity decreases on moving down the group. Hence it gets reduced readily into \[{{[Cr{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{6}}]}^{2+}}\]ion and is a strongest oxidising agent.
