The reaction below was carried out in an acidic solution. Upper I minus, plus upper I upper O minus subscript 3 right arrow upper I subscript 2. Which statement is true about this equation?

It has been balanced by using the half-reaction method.

Explanation:

I- and IO3- gives I2

We divide the reaction into two half-reactions

(2 I- >> I2 + 2e-) x5 ( oxidation  : I goes from -1 to 0 )

2 IO3- + 12H+ + 10e- >> I2 + 6H2O ( reduction : I goes from +5 to 0 )

10 I- >> 5I2 + 10e-

2IO3- + 12H+ + 10e- >> I2 + 6H2O

10 I- + 2IO3- + 12H+ >> 6I2 + 6H2O

To get the smallest numbers we divide by 2 :

5 I- + IO3- + 6H+ >> 3I2 + 3H2O

It has been balanced by using the half-reaction method.

Answer : It is true.

Explanation : Proof is a device which is usually used for measuring the amount of alcohol present in alcoholic beverages. It involves a method of measuring the alcohol content of spirits where we can calculate the proof of a spirits product by multiplying the percent of alcohol by volume by the factor 2.

Example : If a spirit product that has a 40% alcohol content by volume in the beverage is 80 proof.

40 multiplied by 2 = 80.
