Consider the half reaction below. Which statement best describes what is taking place?

Chlorine is losing electrons and being oxidized. Chlorine is losing electrons and being reduced. Chlorine is gaining electrons and being oxidized. Chlorine is gaining electrons and being reduced.

No because it not possibly

Where is the illustration?

Reaction involved in present system is :   c12h22o11 + h2o → 2 c6h12o6the reaction system is obeying following rate law:   rate = k[c12h22o11]thus, it is a first order reaction.now, for 1st order reactionrate constant (k) =  given: initial conc. = 3.0 g, final conc. = 2.7 g, t = 2.5 h∴rate constant (k) =  ∴ k = 0.04215 h-1now, for 1st order reaction, half life = 0.693/k = 0.693/0.04215 = 16.4 hthus correct answer is option b
