Cl2(g) + Ba(OH)2 X(aq.) + BaCl2 + H2O<br>X + H2SO4 Y + BaSO4<br>Y Z + H2O + O2<br>Y and Z are respec — p Block Elements Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

6Cl2 + 2Ba(OH)2 $\rightarrow$ Ba(ClO3)2 (X) + 5BaCl2 + 6H2O<br>Ba(ClO3)2 + H2SO4 $\rightarrow$ 2HClO3 (Y) + BaSO4$\downarrow$<br>2HClO3 $\xrightarrow{\Delta > 365\text{ K}}$ 2ClO2 (Z) + H2O + 1/2 O2
