U, V and W represent different halogens. The table shows the results of nine experiments in which aqueous solutions of U2, V2 and W2 were separately added to separate aqueous solutions containing U⁻, V⁻ and W⁻ ions. U⁻(aq) V⁻(aq) W⁻(aq) U2(aq) no reaction no reaction no reaction V2(aq) U2 formed no reaction W2 formed W2(aq) U2 formed no reaction no reaction Which row contains the ions U⁻, V⁻ and W⁻ in order of their decreasing strength as reducing agents?
