Answer:

A reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction will occur.

Chlorine gas (Cl2) will accept electrons to form Cl- ions.

The Iron(II) ions (Fe2+) will lose electrons to form Fe3+ ions. (Iron (III) ions)

Fe2+ ions are green, while Fe3+ ions are yellow,

so the observation will be the solution turning from green to yellow.
