The balanced equation for the above reaction is 
H₂O + Cl₂ + SO₂ ---> HCl + H₂SO₄
redox reactions are made of reduction and oxidation reactions.
reduction is when the oxidation state of the species reduces and in oxidation the oxidation state increases in the species.
in the above reaction,
oxidation state of Cl in Cl₂ is 0
and oxidation state of Cl in HCl is -1
theres a reduction in oxidation number of Cl from 0 to -1.
therefore Cl is reduced in the reaction

Explanation:

Reduction means the gain of electrons or decrease in number of oxidation state of an atom.

For example, H_{2}O + Cl_{2} + SO_{2} \rightarrow HCl + H_{2}SO_{4}

Reduction half reaction: Cl_{2} + 1e^{-} \rightarrow Cl^{-1}

Here oxidation state of chlorine changes from 0 to -1, that is, chlorine is reducing in this chemical reaction.

What is the osmotic pressure of a 100 ml of toluene solution that contains a total of 0.005 moles of a polymer dissolved in it a
allsm [11]

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis.

That can be mathematical computed from the expression:

Osmotic pressure=C×R×T

Where,

C= Concentration

R=Gas constant

T=Temperature

Concentration=Number of moles of solute/Volume(L)

=0.005*1000/100

=0.05

R= 0.08206 atm L/mol K

T=25+273

=298

Osmotic pressure= 0.05×0.08206×298

=1.2 atm

Why is contribution of orbital motion to paramagnetism not quenched in lanthanoid ions. explain?
Sedaia [141]
Lanthanoid ions are contracted when compared to the other ions. This is due to the vulnerability of the 4f electrons. The electrons are not shielded by other electrons which allow the nucleus to pull the electrons in the orbital closer. This is also the reason why the orbital motion's contribution to paramagnetism is not quenched in the ions.
