Homework Statement
What number of electrons to balance the equation
##I_2(s)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow IO_3^-(aq)+H_2O(l)##
The Attempt at a Solution
I see that the oxidation state of I increases from 0 to +5
But, I don't see any reduction at the reaction..
So, I don't understand how to balance the reaction
And I don't know how to get the number of required electrons to balance the reaction
