$\text{HOCl(aq)}$ is the molecule responsible for killing bacteria when chlorine is added to water. The reaction below forms this molecule. $\text{Cl}_2(g) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \rightleftharpoons \text{HOCl}(aq) + \text{H}^+(aq) + \text{Cl}^-(aq)$ Which statement about this reaction is correct?
- AChlorine is both oxidised and reduced.
- BChlorine is oxidised but not reduced.
- CHydrogen is both oxidised and reduced.
