Calculate the n- factor of reactants in the given chemical changes?
(d) `I^(-)rarrICl`

Explanation

To calculate the n-factor of the reactant \( I^- \) in the reaction \( I^- \rightarrow ICl \), we need to follow these steps:

### Step 1: Identify the oxidation states
First, we need to determine the oxidation states of iodine in both the reactant and the product.

- In \( I^- \) (iodide ion), the oxidation state of iodine is \( -1 \).
- In \( ICl \) (iodine monochloride), we can determine the oxidation state of iodine. Chlorine (Cl) is more electronegative than iodine, and in \( ICl \), it typically has an oxidation state of \( -1 \). Since the compound is neutral, the oxidation state of iodine must be \( +1 \) to balance the \( -1 \) from chlorine.
