**Oxidation-Reduction Reaction Guide** The following skeletal oxidation-reduction reaction occurs under basic conditions. Your task is to write the balanced **oxidation half reaction**. **Reaction Formula:** \[ \text{S} + \text{Cl}^- \rightarrow \text{S}^{2-} + \text{Cl}_2 \] **Instructions:** - Enter electrons as \( \text{e}^- \). **Diagram Explanation:** There is a diagram with two boxes connected by an arrow. The box on the left is labeled "Reactants" and the box on the right is labeled "Products." This visual representation helps identify what substances are taking part in the reaction process, with reactants being transformed into products. Use this diagram to clearly separate and establish the oxidation process in your balanced equation.
