![**Balancing Redox Reactions in Acidic Solutions**
**Objective:**
Complete and balance the following redox reaction in an acidic solution:
\[ \text{ClO}_3^-(\text{aq}) + \text{Cl}^-(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{Cl}_2(\text{g}) + \text{ClO}_2(\text{g}) \]
**Instructions:**
The interface provides various tools to enter coefficients and elements to balance the redox reaction. Here's a guide to the tools available:
- **Numbers (1-9, 0):** Use these to input coefficients for balancing the reaction.
- **Charge options (\(\Box^{4-}\), \(\Box^{3-}\), \(\Box^{2-}\), \(\Box^{-}\), \(\Box^{+}\), \(\Box^{2+}\), \(\Box^{3+}\), \(\Box^{4+}\)):** These allow you to specify the charge of each species.
- **Additional characters (+, (, ), →, ⇌):** Use these symbols to modify and finalize the structure of the chemical equation.
- **Common chemical species and components:**
- \( \text{H}_3\text{O}^+ \)
- \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \)
- \( \text{H} \)
- \( \text{e}^- \)
- \( \text{OH}^- \)
- \( \text{H}^+ \)
- \( \text{O} \)
- \( \text{Cl} \)
- **States of matter (s), (l), (g), (aq):** Indicate the state of matter for each species.
- **Reset & Delete:** Use these buttons to clear entries or delete specific elements.
**Action Steps:**
1. Identify the oxidation and reduction species.
2. Determine the changes in oxidation states.
3. Balance the equation using the provided inputs, ensuring that both mass and charge are conserved.
4. Use hydronium (\(\text{H}_3\text{O}^+\)), water (\(\text{H}_2\text{O}\)), and electrons (\(\text{e}^-\)) wisely to balance the reaction in acidic conditions.
