Answer:
Chlorine reacts with water to evolve
nascent oxygen which brings about both oxidation and bleaching
As oxidising agent:
\[C{{l}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{\,}\,2HCl+O\]
\[S{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O+O\xrightarrow{\,}\,{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]
\[C{{l}_{2}}+S{{O}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{\,}\,2HCl+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]
As bleaching agent:
\[C{{l}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{\,}\,2HCl+(O)\]
Coloured substance \[+(O)\xrightarrow{\,}\,\]Colourless
