Oxidation half reaction:
Se2- (aq) -> Se(s) + 2e-
Developing reduction half reaction:
Step 1 (Balance S atoms): 2 SO32- -> S2O32-
Step 2 (Balance O atoms by adding H2O): 2 SO32- -> S2O32- + 3 H2O
Step 3 (Balance H atoms by adding H+): 2 SO32- + 6H+ -> S2O32- + 3 H2O
Step 4 (Balance charge by adding e-): 2 SO32- + 6H+ + 4e- -> S2O32- + 3 H2O
Step 5 (Add 6OH- to both sides for basic solution): 2SO32- + 6H2O + 4e- -> S2O32- + 3 H2O + 6 OH-
Reduction half reaction:
2SO32- + 6H2O + 4e- -> S2O32- + 3H2O + 6OH-

Part IV: Balancing Redox Reactions in Acidic and Basic Solution General rules for balancing redox reactions in acidic or basic solution: 1. Divide the redox reaction into two half-reactions. One that contains the element that gets Oxidized and one that contains the element that gets reduced. 2. Focusing on one half-reaction at a time, balance all non-H and non-0 atoms. 3. Balance the O atoms by adding water molecules to the side with too few oxygens 4. Balance the H...
