The balanced chemical equation is this:
Cl2(aq) + 2Br-(aq) --> 2Cl- + Br2(aq)

Looking at each substance involved in the reaction:
Cl2 has 0 charge and gains a charge of -1 after the reaction
Br- has a charge of -1 but turns to 0 after the reaction

Cl2 gained an electron which means it is the reduced substance
Br- lost an electron which means it is the oxidized substanced
Consequently, Cl2 is the oxidizing agent and Br- is the reducing agent.

A student obtains the following data for his experimental runs for the unknown acid
devlian [24]
The % error in the student’s data is  
Correct score - run score/ correct score * 100
 In run 1 we have
  0.2542 - 0.2541/0.2542 * 100 = 0.000393391031 = 0.03933%
 In run 2 we have 
 0.2542 - 0.2668/0.2542 * 100 = -0.00495672699 = -0.495%
 In run 3 we have
 0.2542 - 0.2549/0.2542 * 100 = -0.00275373721 = -0.275%
 And run 4 we have
 0.2542 - 0.2554/0.2542 * 100 = 0.00495672699 = 0.495
 
 The spread are 0.2542 - 0.2541 = 0.0001 and 0.2542 - 0.2668 = -0.0126
 Also 0.2542 - 0.2549 = -0.0007 and 0.2542 - 0.2554 = -0.0012
