hi chems

I have a question. I am trying to correlate reactivity with electronegativity.
For example:

I have Ag+ (solid silver piece) in a solution containing Cl- and I-. Accordingly with the reactivity series, Cl is more reactive than I. And Cl is more electronegative than I. Is it possible to say that Cl- will be more attracted to Ag+?

ps: imagine ideal quantities

Thank you

I have Ag+ (solid silver piece)

"Solid silver piece" - what is that? Is it a soluble silver salt like AgNO₃, or piece of solid silver (Ag)

Is it possible to say that Cl^- will be more attracted to Ag⁺?

Rather I^- will be more attracted, as - when adding Ag⁺ dropwise to solution of Cl^- and I^- - AgI will be formed in first case.

is a solid silver piece that have Ag+ on the surface. I- and Cl- are in solution, thank you so much.

Why are you trying to correlate reactivity with electronegativity?
