Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Components of the Chemical Equation
In a chemical equation, the substances on the left side of the arrow are called the reactants, and the substances on the right side are called the products. The arrow indicates the direction of the reaction, showing that the reactants are transformed into the products.
Step 2: Determine the Role of $\mathrm{NaBr}+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}$
In the given chemical equation:
\[
\mathrm{NaBr}+\mathrm{Cl}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{Br}_{2}
\]
The substances $\mathrm{NaBr}$ and $\mathrm{Cl}_{2}$ are on the left side of the arrow. Therefore, they are the reactants in this chemical reaction.
