Question

Pls help why is it reduced

Answer 1

It is reduced

Step-by-step explanation:

• Reduction is the process of gaining electrons in a chemical reaction, just like electron affinity and electronegativity.

In the reaction above, the chlorate ion is added or reacted with iodide ion (electron) hence chlorate ion reduced to chloride ion and iodine.

`{}`

Answer 2

its orginal charge is none then through the reaction it is reduced because then final charge is -1 meaning is went down 1 so its charge was reduced

Hope this helps! :)
