How can it be explained that when copper metal is treated with bromine liquid it forms CuBr2, but when it is treated with iodine vapor it forms CuI and not CuI2?
A. I2 has less of a reduction potential than Br2
B. I2 has more of a reduction potential than Br2
C. Iodine salts are more soluble than bromide salts.
D. Iodide prefers to carry a -2 charge while bromide prefers to carry a -1 charge.
A) I2 has less of a reduction potential than Br2
