Write a balanced half-reaction describing the reduction of gaseous dichlorine to aqueous chloride anions.

-

Explanations:- In reduction the electrons are accepted and so they are written on the reactant side. When an atom accepts electrons then it forms anion. Chlorine has 7 valence electrons and it needs one more electron to complete it's octet. Since, dichlorine has two Cl atoms and each Cl atom needs one more electron to complete it's octet, two electrons are accepted by dichorine to make aqueous chloride ion. For balancing the equation, there would be two chloride ions as the reactant side has two chlorine atoms.

the correct name for the n3 ion is azide. azide is a polyatomic anion with a -1 charge and is written as n3 -1. it consists of three nitrogen atoms bonded together. hope i . let me know if you need anything else.
