दीर्घउत्तर

उत्तर

The given redox reaction can be represented as:

\[\ce{Cl_{2(s)} + SO_{2(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)} -> Cl-_{(aq)} + SO^{2-}_{4(aq)}}\]

The oxidation half reaction is:

\[\ce{^{+4}SO_{2(aq)} -> ^{+6}SO^{2-}_{4(aq)}}\]

The oxidation number is balanced by adding two electrons as:

\[\ce{SO_{2(aq)} -> SO^{2-}_{4(aq)} + 2e-}\]

The charge is balanced by adding 4H+ ions as:

\[\ce{SO_{2(aq)} -> SO^{2-}_{4(aq)} + 4H+_{(aq)} + 2e-}\]

The O atoms and H+ ions are balanced by adding 2H2O molecules as:

\[\ce{SO_{2(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)} -> SO^{2-}_{4(aq)} + 4H+_{(aq)} + 2e-}\]   ....(i)

The reduction half reaction is:

\[\ce{Cl_{2(s)} -> Cl-_{(aq)}}\]

The chlorine atoms are balanced as:

\[\ce{^0Cl_{2(s)} -> ^{-1}Cl-_{(aq)}}\]

The oxidation number is balanced by adding electrons

\[\ce{Cl_{2(s)} + 2e- -> 2Cl-_{(aq)}}\]  ....(ii)

The balanced chemical equation can be obtained by adding equation (i) and (ii) as:

\[\ce{Cl_{2(s)} + SO_{2(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)} ->  2Cl-_{(aq)} + SO^{2-}_{4(aq)} + 4H+_{(aq)}}\]
