It is because bromine is smaller in size than iodine and hence easily reacts.
Another reason is that bromine is the more electronegative than iodine and hence it attracts the electrons very easily from other atoms to form bonds.

Why does a aqueous solution of iodine not react with sodium bromide?
Bromine is more reactive than iodine/bromine is higher in the activity series than iodine
Can iodine displace bromine?
No. Bromine is more reactive than iodine. Therefore, bromine will displace iodine.
What is the equation of potassium bromide with aqueous iodine?
KBr + I2(aq) --> KBr + I2(aq) It does not react because bromine is more electronegative and reactive than iodine.
Which halogen is more active chlorine bromine or iodine?
chlorine is more active than bromine which is more active than iodine
Which is More reactive chlorine or bromine?
Chlorine
Why iodine is less reactive than bromine?
Bromine has more nuclear charge as compared to iodine. So, bromine easily attracts an electron and hence more reactive.
Why does a aqueous solution of iodine not react with sodium bromide?
Bromine is more reactive than iodine/bromine is higher in the activity series than iodine
Can iodine displace bromine?
No. Bromine is more reactive than iodine. Therefore, bromine will displace iodine.
Is bromine more or less reactive then xenon?
Bromine is way more reactive
What is the equation of potassium bromide with aqueous iodine?
KBr + I2(aq) --> KBr + I2(aq) It does not react because bromine is more electronegative and reactive than iodine.
why electronegativity of iodine is more than bromine?
is it so? Bromine is more electronegetive than Iodine
Which of the two halogens shown is more reactive?
The most reactive halogen, and one of the most reactive of all the elements, is fluorine. Reactivity in the halogen family continues in order from most reactive to least reactive with chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
What is the reactivity for nonmetals?
Fluorine Chlorine Iodine Bromine Astatine
What is more reactive chlorine or bromine?
Chlorine is more reactive
Which family of nonmetals is most reactive?
The halides (Group VII): fluorine, chlorine, bromine, & iodine.
Which halogen is more active chlorine bromine or iodine?
chlorine is more active than bromine which is more active than iodine
Name the most reactive family of non-metals?
Halogens: fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine.
