The answer is E = - 2.87V.

Matias Robertson · Answer 2

The chemical with the lowest standard oxidation potential E has the greatest tendency to be reduced but hardest to oxidize. Of all the chemicals on this list, Iodine I2 has the the highest standard oxidation potential and Fluorine F2 has the lowest standard oxidation potential. Therefore the correct answer is C. F2 E=-2.87V.
