Hi chemists
Could anyone solve the flowing redox equations in acidic medium?
A)   KIO3 + HCl + KI > I2 + KCl + H2O

B)    KIO3 + KI + H2SO4 > KI3 + K2SO4 + H2O 

Please with details…….. Thanks in advance

Thanks sir, but the difficulty of above equations is the repetition of atoms in more than one reactants and more than one products.
is it clear my dear?

What methods of balancing redox reaction equations do you know? What have you tried?

[Ibin-Huan]

Could you just please show me your answer to the both equations. I actually know the steps (half reactions, balancing the items other than H & O and , balancing H & O and finally balancing of charge . But as I mentioned earlier I have more than products contain same atoms.

let make it sample, could you write the half reactions equations?

Thanks once again

No.

Start trying. What is getting oxidized? What is getting reduced? It may happen it is the same substance, in which case you will have it in the LHS twice, nothing wrong about it.
