The ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous potassium bromide with chlorine gas is shown. 2Br^ - +Cl 2 Br 2 +2Cl^ - Which statement is correct? A B Bromide ions are oxidised by losing electrons. Bromide ions are oxidised by gaining electrons. C Chlorine is oxidised by gaining electrons. D Chlorine is oxidised by losing electrons.

The correct statement : Bromide ions are oxidised by losing electrons

Redox=The reaction of addition/reduction of oxidation number

Oxidation is an increase in oxidation number, while reduction is a decrease in oxidation number.

In the redox reaction, it is also known

Reducing agents are substances that experience oxidation

The oxidizer is a substance that is reduced

Reaction

2Br⁻ + Cl₂⇒ Br₂ + 2Cl⁻

Oxidation : Br⁻ to Br₂ (-1 to 0)⇒oxidized

Reduction : Cl₂ to Cl⁻(0 to -1)⇒reduced

the answer is d : ) have a good da

have a great day because if you dont you and i will be sad
