Answer:

2 Cl + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻

Explanation:

<em>Which equation describes a reduction?</em>

  • <em>Mg(s) → Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻.</em> NO. This is an oxidation because Mg loses electrons and its oxidation number increases from 0 to 2.
  • <em>2 Cl + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻.</em> YES. This is a reduction because Cl gains electrons and its oxidation number decreases from 0 to 1-.
  • <em>Na(s) → Na⁺(aq) + e⁻.</em> NO. This is an oxidation because Na loses electrons and its oxidation number increases from 0 to 1.
  • <em>Al(s) → Al³⁺(aq) + 3 e⁻.</em> NO. This is an oxidation because Al loses electrons and its oxidation number increases from 0 to 3.
