Which of the following reactions is correct for a given electrochemical cell at 25∘C{25^ \circ }C?

Pt∣Br2(g)∣Br−(g)∣∣Cl−(aq)∣Cl2(g)∣Pt\mathrm{Pt}\left| {\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}_2}\left( \mathrm{g} \right)} \right|\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}^ - }\left( \mathrm{g} \right)||\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{l}^ - }\left( {aq} \right)\left| {\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{l}_2}\left( \mathrm{g} \right)} \right|\mathrm{Pt}
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
2Br−(aq)+Cl2(g)→2Cl−(aq)+Br2(g)2\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}^ - }\left( {\mathrm{aq}} \right) + \mathrm{C}{\mathrm{l}_2}\left( \mathrm{g} \right) \to 2\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{l}^ - }\left( {\mathrm{aq}} \right) + \mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}_2}\left( \mathrm{g} \right)
Option A is correct because it represents the spontaneous reaction occurring in the electrochemical cell, where chlorine oxidizes bromide ions.
