Answer #2

Oxidation: I- + 3 H2O => IO3- + 6 H+ + 6 e-

Reduction: Cr2O72- + 14 H+ + 6 e- => 2 Cr3+ + 7 H2O

Add Oxidation + Reduction:

I- + 3 H2O + Cr2O72- + 14 H+ + 6 e-

=> IO3- + 6 H+ + 6 e- + 2 Cr3+ + 7 H2O

Cancel common terms to get balanced overall equation:

Cr2O72- + I- + 8 H+ => 2 Cr3+ + IO3- + 4 H2O
