Marks: +1, -0
Write balanced equations for the following :
(i) NaCl is heated with sulphuric acid in the presence of MnO2_{2}.
(ii) Chlorine gas is passed into a solution of NaI in water.
Solution:  
(i) MnO2+H2SO4→MnSO4+H2O+O\text{(i) }\mathrm{MnO}_2 + \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{SO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{MnSO}_4 + \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O} + \mathrm{O}
[NaCl+H2SO4→NaHSO4+HCl]×2\left[ \mathrm{NaCl} + \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{SO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{NaHSO}_4 + \mathrm{HCl} \right] \times 2
                2HCl+O→H2O+Cl2\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;2\mathrm{HCl} + \mathrm{O} \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O} + \mathrm{Cl}_2
