The correct option is A 2Br−(aq)+Cl2(g)→2Cl−(aq)+Br2(g)
For a given electrochemical cell at 25∘C
Pt(s)|Br−(aq)|Br2(g)||Cl2(g)|Cl−(aq)|Pt(s)
LHS denotes anode ,oxidation takes place:
So, anode half cell reaction :
2Br−(aq)→Br2(g)+2e− eq(i)
RHS denotes cathode ,reduction takes place:
So, cathode half cell reaction :
Cl2(g)+2e−→2Cl−(aq) eq(ii)
Adding both the equations:
Cl2(g)+2Br−(aq)→2Cl−(aq)+Br2(g)
