Answer:
CuI₂ + Br₂
Explanation:
1) The activity series F > Cl > Br > I means that F is the most active and I is the least active of those four elements (the halogens, group 17 in the periodic table).
The activity is a measure of how eager is an element to react compared to other elements in the series in a single replacement reaction.
2) Choice 1: CuI₂ + Br₂
Since the activity of Br is higher than that of I, Br will react with CuI₂, displacing I, which will be left alone, as per this chemical equation:
CuI₂ + Br₂ → CuBr₂ + I₂
Being I less active than Br, it cannot displace Br in CuBr₂.
3) Choice 2: Cl₂ + AlF₃
Being Cl less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.
4) Choice 3: Br₂ + NaCl
Again, being Br less active than Cl, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.
5) Choice 4: CuF₂ + I₂
Once more, being I less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.
hope this helped!
