How to Balance NaClO3+HCl=Cl2+NaCl+H2O+ClO2 I've come up with four reactions, and I think they' re fine. Why does Cl in NaClO3 change to ClO2 and Cl in HCl change to Cl2? How to Balance NaClO3+HCl=Cl2+NaCl+H2O+ClO2 I've come up with four responses, and I think they' re all right. Why does Cl in NaClO3 change to ClO2 and Cl in HCl change to Cl2?

2NaClO3+4HCl=Cl2↑+2NaCl+2ClO2+2H2O
Cl in NaClO3 is +5 valence and Cl in ClO2 is +4 valence. Generally speaking, the change of valence state of redox reaction follows the "proximity principle "(involving the concept of electrode potential). Therefore, Cl in NaClO3 is converted into ClO2.

Trim of KCI3+HCL=KCL+CL2+CLO2+H2O KCIO3+HCL=KCL+CL2+CLO2+H2O trim

This equation can not be trimmed, it has multiple trim possibilities.
How the actual reaction is carried out can only be determined experimentally.
