What is the stoichiometric coefficient for the hydroxide ion in the balanced redox reaction of:
In+(aq) + ClO-(aq) --> Cl-(aq) + In3+(aq) when balanced in basic solution?
In+(aq) + ClO-(aq) --> Cl-(aq) + In3+(aq)
oxidation half reaction reduction half reaction
In^+ (aq) ------------> In^3+ (aq) ClO^- (aq) -------------> Cl^- (aq)
In^+ (aq) ------------> In^3+ (aq) ClO^- (aq) -------------> Cl^- (aq) + H2O(l)
In^+ (aq) ------------> In^3+ (aq) ClO^- (aq) + 2H2O(l)-------------> Cl^- (aq) + H2O(l) + 2OH^- (aq)
In^+ (aq) ------------> In^3+ (aq) +2e^- ClO^- (aq) + 2H2O(l) + 2e^----------> Cl^- (aq) + H2O(l) + 2OH^- (aq)
In^+ (aq) ------------> In^3+ (aq) +2e^-
ClO^- (aq) + 2H2O(l) + 2e^----------> Cl^- (aq) + H2O(l) + 2OH^- (aq)
