Answer:

Option 1, Cl is reduced and gains electrons

Explanation:

HClO₃  → HClO₂

In HClO₃, chlorine acts with +5 in the oxidation state

In HClO₂,, chlorine acts with +3 in the oxidation state.

The state has been reducted, so the Cl has been reduced. As it was reduced, it means that has won e⁻, in this case 2

Cl⁻⁵  → Cl⁻³  +  2e⁻

How many moles of brcl form when 2.74 mol cl2 react with excess br2?
egoroff_w [7]
Following reaction arise between Br2 and Cl2

Br2   +               Cl2     →     2BrCl
(1mole)           (1mole)         (2moles)

From above balanced reaction, it can be seen that 1 mole of Br2 reacts with 1 mole of Cl2 to form 2 mole of BrCl

Thus, when <span>2.74 mol Cl2 reacts with excess Br2, 2.74 X 2 = 5.48 moles of BrCl will be formed. </span>
