It is actually from my grade 12 Chemistry homework.
The question says aqueous chlorine and aqueous sodium bromide.
Therefore, the species list will be Cl2(aq), H20(l), Na1+(aq), Br1-(aq).
Here is a problem: When I look at my data table the reduction half-reaction for Chlorine is Cl2(g) + 2e- --> 2Cl-(aq).
Will there be no reaction because it is aqueous Cl2(aq)???
Doesn't it has to be Cl2(g) in order to achieve this reaction?
Another question is... it is fairly simple, i am just a little confused a little bit.
F2 + 2e- --> 2F-
is this oxidation or reduction?
Thank you. Please. Help me out.
