While moving from left to right in periodic table basic character of oxide of elements will decrease.

  ∴→Increasing basic strengthAl2O3<MgO<Na2O 

and while descending in the group basic character of corresponding oxides increases. 

 ∴→Increasing basic strengthNa2O<K2O

∴ Correct Order is Al2O3 < MgO <Na2O <K2O

In this chemical reaction chlorine change oxidation number from 0 to -1 (reduction) and bromine change oxidation number from -1 to 0 (oxidation).

Chlorine is stronger oxidation reagent than bromine.

In VIIA or group 17 (halogen elements) there are six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At) and tennessin(Ts).

They have high electronegativity because they have seven valence electrons in their outermost energy level, so they can gain an electron to have the octet rule.  

Going down in the group, element are weaker oxidazing reagent and less reactive.

1. Filing an RTI application with the Delhi government is now just a click away. Delhi became the second state to launch e-RTI portal that will enable citizens to file online Right to Information (RTI). Maharashtra is the first state to launch the online RTI platform.
