In the following reaction, indicate which material is being oxidized, which is being reduced, which material is the reducing agent and which reagent the oxidizing agent. Don’t forget to indicate state (s, l, g, or aq).

Potassium bromide is reacted with elemental chlorine to produce potassium chloride and elemental bromine.

Solutions

Expert Solution

KBr(aq) + Cl2(ag ------------> KCl(aq) + Br2(l)   

Cl2 = 0 state

KCl Cl = -1 state

so Cl is reduced from 0 to -1

oxidizing agent =

KBr Br = -1 state

Br2 Br = 0 state

Br changes from -1 to 0

so Br is oxidized.

oxidizing agent = Cl2

reducing agent = KBr
