hi
chlorine as reducing and oxidizing agent reactions

Answer 1

❤here is your answe❤

▶The chlorine molecules have gained electrons to form chloride ions.

▶They have been reduced.

▶ This is obviously a redox reaction in which chlorine is acting as an oxidising agent.

Answer 2

$Hey..$

Here is your answer...

Chlorine as an oxidizing agent :

▶ Cl2 + 2 I ===> 2 Cl + I2

When chloride and iodide ions are added, chlorine gained electron while iodide lose electrons.

Chlorine as reducing agent :

▶ Chlorine doesn't act as a reducing agent because it's outermost shell needs only one electron and so it oxidizes itself therfore it is an oxidizing agent.

Hope it helps..
