Question 31

In halogens, which of the following increases from iodine to fluorine?

Solution

Going up the group from iodine to fluorine the atoms get smaller, so electronegativity, ionization energy and oxidising power all increase, while the X-X bond length decreases. Hence options b, c and d are correct.
