I have been trying to figure this out all day I had a test earlier today and I know I missed it and any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cl2 + I- => IO3- + 2Cl-
3H2O + I-=> IO3- + 6H+ + 6e-
3 (2e- +2Cl-=> Cl2)
3H2O + I- => IO3- + 6H+ + 6e-
6e- +6Cl- => 3Cl2 cancel electrons and add reaction
3H2O + 6Cl- + I- => 6H+ + 3Cl2 + IO3-
This is where I'm lost the charges are not equal, now I know for basic solutions you add OH- for every H+ and I even tried that but I still can not get my charges to equal.
