Consider the half reaction below. 2cl-(> cl2(g)+2e- 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.

Chlorine is losing electrons and being oxidized.

Justification:

1) Chlorine is losing electrons

As you se the side of the products shwo two electrons, that means that those electons were lost by the reactants. Given that the only reactant is chlorine, it is releasing or losing those electrons.

2) Chlorine is being oxidized.

The substance that loses electrons and, hence, increases its oxidation number, is the substance being oxidized.

In this case Cl (-) in the side of the reactants has oxidation state (1-), while Cl2 in the side of the products has oxidation state 0. This shows that the oxidation state of chlorine increased, meaning that it is being oxidized.

Neither model is able to show the reactivity of potassium.

Okay well gravitational energy is matter forced by gravity making energy though the kinetic energy then the electric energy produces electricity from the kinetic energy and the kinetic energy gets its energy from the gravitational energy. was that the answer you wanted or something else?
