The correct response is:
**Yes, it will because iodine is less reactive than chlorine.**
In this reaction, chlorine is more reactive than iodine, which allows it to displace the iodine from magnesium iodide (MgI2). Therefore, chlorine can react with magnesium iodide. The overall reaction would produce magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and iodine (I2).
**Yes, it will because iodine is less reactive than chlorine.**
