Predict and explain the reactions: (a) Kl+Cl_(2)to (b) KClO_(3)+l_(2)to

Answer»

Solution :(a) `2Kl+Cl_(2)to2KCl+l_(2)`
(b) `KClO_(3)+l_(2)toKlO_(3)+Cl_(2)`
Because in the FIRST CASE `Cl_(2)` is more powerful oxidizing agent than `l_(2)` and in second case `CIO_(3)^(-)` is more powerful oxidizing agent than `lO_(3)^(-)[Cl^(5+)]` being reduced to `Cl^(0)` and `L^(0)` being OXIDIZED to `l^(5+)`]
