question 46

Multiple Choice

Write a balanced half equation for the following couple: HClO₂(aq) | Cl^-(aq) (acidic)

• A)HClO₂(aq)+ 2 H₂O(l)→ Cl^-(aq)+ 3 H⁺(aq)+ 4 e^-
• B)HClO₂(aq)+ 2 H⁺(aq)+ 2 e^- → Cl^-(aq)+ H₂O(l)
• C)HClO₂(aq)+ 3 H⁺(aq)+ 4 e^- → Cl^-(aq)+ 2 H₂O(l)
• D)HClO₂(aq)+ 3 H⁺(aq)→ Cl^-(aq)+ H₂O(l)+ 4 e^-
• E)HClO₂(aq)+ e^- → Cl^-(aq)+ H⁺(aq)+ O₂(g)
