Answer:
Cl⁻ is the reducing agent.
Explanation:
The redox reaction is as follow:
MnO₂ + 4H⁺ + 2Cl⁻ → Mn²⁺ + 2H₂O + Cl₂
One should know the following terms,
Reducing agent:
An atom or element which tends to lose electron during a chemical reaction and get itself oxidized. In above reaction Cl⁻ is reducing agent as it carries a negative charge (means it has one extra electron) on the reactant side while, it has zero oxidation state on the product side. It means going from -1 to 0 the Cl lost one electron hence, it is an reducing agent according to definition.
Oxidizing Agent:
On the other hand oxidizing agent is an element or compound which tends to accepts electron(s) and get itself reduced. In above reaction Mn has an oxidation state of +4 on reactant side and after gaining electron from Cl it has changed to +2 on the product side. Hence, it has reduced but has oxidized the Cl atom so it is an oxidizing agent according to definition.

Answer:
The mole fraction composition of the liquid is :
Mole fraction of butane, pentane and hexane are 0.3638,0.3908 and 0.2454 respectively.
Explanation:
Mass of the liquid mixture = 200 g
Percentage of butane = 30%
Mass of butane =
Moles of butane =
Percentage of pentane= 40%
Mass of pentane=
Moles of pentane=
Percentage of hexane = 100% - 30% - 40% = 30%
Mass of hexane =
Moles of hexane =
Mole fraction of butane, pentane and hexane :
