Imagine yourself making a nice cup of tea on a cold winter day. you begin by boiling some water in a kettle. next, you add the steaming liquid to your cup. then, you open a tea bag and repeatedly dunk it into the water. you pour a dash of milk and drop a few sugar cubes into the cup, stirring the solution with a spoon. finally, you squeeze a bit of lemon into your tea mixture. however, before you have time to stir the lemon juice into your tea, the liquid forms clumps. in other words, your tea has curdled!

name some of the chemical substances in the tea mixture.
which chemicals could have reacted to cause the curdling?

Answer the questions about this reaction: nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions: oxidation half-reaction: reduction half-reaction: based on the table of relative strengths of oxidizing and reducing agents (b-18), would these reactants form these products? write the balanced equation: answer options: a. 0/na -> +1/na+1e- b. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) c. +1/na+1e- -> 0 /na d. -1/2i -> 0/i2+2e- e. no f. 4nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + i2(g) g. 2nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(aq) + i2(g) h. 4nai(aq) + 2cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + 2i2(g) i. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) j. 0/cl2+2e -> -1/2cl- k. yes
