The chemical reaction is expressed as:

Cl2 (g) + H2O (l) - > HOCl (aq) + H + (aq) + Cl - (aq)

Reduction reaction is a reaction that loses electrons while reacting. The half reaction which represents the reduction reaction is written as:

C l2 + 2 e - 1 →2C l - 1

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
