Solution
The correct option is A True From their reduction potential it can be seen that, as reduction potential of chlorine is higher than that of bromine so it will oxidise as Cl2+KBr→KCl+Br2 (reddish-brown volatile liquid) because Br ions float freely in the solution that have naturally brown colour.
