2 KIO₃ (aq) + 5 H₂O₂ (aq) + 2 HCl (aq) → I₂ (s) + 2 KCl (aq) + 5 O₂ (g) + 6 H₂O (l)

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

KIO₃ is an oxidizing agent, H₂O₂ is a reducing agent.

This is a precipitation reaction: I₂ is the formed precipitate.

This is a gas evolution reaction, O₂ is the formed gas.
