Oxidising power of chlorine in aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters indicated
below:
$${1 \over 2}C{l_2}(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{1 \over 2}{\Delta _{diss}}{H^\Theta }} \over
\longrightarrow $$ $$Cl(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{\Delta _{eg}}{H^\Theta }} \over
\longrightarrow $$ $$C{l^ - }(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{\Delta _{Hyd}}{H^\Theta }} \over
\longrightarrow $$ $$C{l^ - }(aq)$$
