On the basis of the following `E^(@)` values, the stongest oxidizing agent is `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-) rarr [Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)+e^(-), E^(@) = -0.35 V` `Fe^(2+) rarr Fe^(3+)+e^(-), E^(@) = -0.77 V`A. `Fe^(3+)`B. `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)`C. `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-)`D. `Fe^(2+)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`{:([Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)rarr[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-)",",E^(@)=+0.35V),(" "Fe^(3+)rarrFe^(2+)",",E^(@)=+0.77V):}`
Higher the positive reduction potential, stronger is the oxidizing agent. Oxidizing agent oxidizes other compounds and gets itself reduced easily.
