Question

Although electron gain enthalpy of fluorine is less negative as compared to chlorine, fluorine is a stronger oxidizing agent than chlorine this is due to

Easy

A

Low enthalpy of dissociation of F – F bond
B

High hydration enthalpy of F^-
C

Both 1 & 2
D

Least ionization potential

Solution

Although electron gain enthalpy of fluorine is less negative as compared to chlorine, fluorine is a stronger oxidizing agent than chlorine this is due to the net higher standard electrode potential of fluorine is attributed to its low enthalpy of dissociation of F – F bond and high hydration enthalpy of F^-
