The highest order of oxidizing nature is Nitric acid, Sulphuric acid and Phosphoric acid.
Explanation:
- Nitric acid is an extremely powerful oxidizing agent. Each nitric acid molecule contains 3 oxygen atoms. As the acid reacts with the metal, it forms a metallic salt which releases hydrogen gas.
- Sulfuric acid is a powerful acid, it interacts with weak amphoteric base water and provides dilute solutions of H₃O+ ions. While concentrated sulphuric acid provides nacent oxygen and produces sulphuric acid.
- Phosphoric acid is a weak oxidizing agent. The affinity of Phosphorus to oxygen is greater than that of nitrogen.
