I mean can we be sure it could happen at least as much or in larger quantities on a planet so different?

likely yes, as chlorine has a lower oxidation potential than oxygen and thus should be easier to rip that extra electron away from than oxygen with its two hydrogens in water

the problem though is if there’s also hydrogen being produced close to the chlorine, as it could react before it bubbles up to the surface

Well hopefully there’s more chlorine being produced than hydrogen then
