Starch, commercial bleach and halides

[zipup]

1. If i were asked to write the equation for starch, bleach and halides, how am i suppose to do it?



2. starch, commercial bleach (NaOCl), halides (KI, KBr, NaCl, NaF)



3. My attempt at this equation: starch + NaOCl + KI --> Kstarch + NaOCl + I2

if I'm not wrong, you should consider the typical test for starch, with iodine forming a blue black complex with the starch.

the halides are reducing agents. and the bleach is an oxidising agent.
