Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The given reaction is a redox reaction involving iodine and nitrogen in their respective compounds. To balance the equation in an acidic solution, water (H2O) molecules are often added to balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The correct coefficient of water in the balanced equation is 3, indicating that three water molecules are involved in the balanced reaction.
