Im not sure how to go about this. 

Write the three reduction reactions for Cl2, Br2, and I2 in order of easier to reduce or harder to reduce.

 

 

 

I don't know how we sort things, and I have no clue if this helpful, but these were net ionic equations I got for reactions they listed.

Potassium bromide and chlorine: 2KBr(l) + Cl2=> 2KCl(s) + Br2 (l)

Potassium bromide and iodine,: 2KBr(l) + I2(l) => 2KI(s) + Br2 (l)

Potassium iodide and bromine: 2KI(s) + Br2(l) => 2KBr(l) + I2(l)

Potassium iodide and chlorine: 2KI(s) + Cl2(l) => 2KCl(s) + I2(l)
