Just the number 2 to get the cofficients
<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O ----> HCIO + HCI
Oxidations states:
The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.
The
oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is
+ 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so
+1 + 1 - 2 = 0
The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.
Also,
you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is
is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is
reduced.
With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl
has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an
oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation
number +1 in HClO.
Answer:
A) The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed.
and
B) Energy can be transferred from one object to another, and it can assume different forms.
Chlorine because that element has 17 electrons
