ANSWER: +1

EXPLANATION

What is the change in oxidation number of bromine in the following re-dox reaction Cl 2 +2HBr 2HCl+Br 2 A -2;0 B) -1;0 C) 0: -1 D) 0;-2

for Cl 2 +2HBr 2HCl+Br 2 , the Cl in Cl2 is reduced from "0" to

"-1" and the Br in HBr is oxidized from "-1" to "0"

So the change in oxidation number is +1
