When chlorine gas is bubbled into aqueous potassium iodide solution, a redox reaction occurs.
Give the ionic equation for this reaction. State symbols are not required.
In a further experiment, 0.50 mol of chlorine gas was bubbled into an aqueous solution containing a mixture of 0.66 mol of sodium iodide and 0.66 mol of sodium bromide. Assuming that all the chlorine gas reacted, calculate the number of moles of iodine and bromine produced. Justify your answer in terms of the relative reducing power of bromide and iodide ions.
