The bigger the atomic radius the easier it is to oxidise the atom. Remember that an atom is oxidized by the loss of an electron.

Explanation:

The bigger the atomic radius the further away the valence electron are from the attractive force of the atomic nucleus. This means that the energy required to remove an electron from the valence shell is easier compared to an atom with a smaller atomic radius. This is because you need to overcome the attractive force of the nucleus on the electron for you to oxidize the atom.

The given statement is True.


This is single replacement reaction.

As reactivity decreases down the group,

Iodine is less reactive than Chlorine.  

And so Iodine cannot replace chlorine from FeCl2.

I2 + FeCl2 ---> no reaction (Iodine is less reactive than chlorine)
