Question

The increasing order of the oxidizing power of these following compounds :

HClO4<HClO3<HClO2$HCl{O}_4<HCl{O}_3<HCl{O}_2<HClO$

If the given order is true enter 1 else 0

Answer 1

Oxidizing power is the tendency of an element to accept an electron. The greater is its ability greater will be its oxidizing power.

The tendency of accepting electron increases from $Cl{O}_4^{-}$ to $Cl{O}^{-}$

So, the increasing order of the oxidizing power will be $HCl{O}_4<HCl{O}_3<HCl{O}_2<HClO$.

The given order is correct. Hence, the correct answer is 1.
