Question

Which of the following displaces $\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ from an aqueous solution containing bromide ions?\

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(c) : Since chlorine is stronger oxidising agent than bromine, therefore it will displace bromine from an aqueous solution containing bromide ions. $$ \mathrm{Cl}_{2}+2 \mathrm{Br}^{-} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}+\mathrm{Br}_{2} $$
