If chlorine gas is bubbles through an aqueous solution of sodium iodide, the result is elemental iodine and aqueous sodium chloride solution. What kind of reactions took place?

The balanced reaction that describes the reaction of chlorine gas and sodium iodide to produce elemental iodine and sodium chloride in aqueous solution is expressed Cl2+2NaI = I2 + 2NaCl. This kind of reaction is called single replacement reaction where the anion, in this case, is only replaced
