Question

which statement best descnbes the formula equation cl₂(g) + 2kbr(aq) → 2kcl(aq) + br₂(l)?
potassium bromine gas reacts with liquid chlorine to form potassium chloride in solution and bromine gas.
carbon iodide reacts with potassium bromide to form potassium carbon iodide and bromine.
chlorine gas reacts with potassium bromide to form potassium chloride in solution and liquid bromine.
bromine gas reacts with a solution of potassium chloride to form potassium bromide and chlorine gas.

Explanation:

En la ecuación \(Cl_{2}(g)+2KBr(aq)\to2KCl(aq)+Br_{2}(l)\), se observa que el gas cloro (\(Cl_{2}\)) reacciona con el bromuro de potasio (\(KBr\)) en disolución acuosa para formar cloruro de potasio (\(KCl\)) en disolución acuosa y bromo (\(Br_{2}\)) en estado líquido.

Answer:

Chlorine gas reacts with potassium bromide to form potassium chloride in solution and liquid bromine.
