Can you explain me why does the second pair become:
2 ClO3- => 2 ClO2 + O2 ?

Shouldn't it be like that?
ClO3- => O2

balance redox reactions in acidic solution

Hi, I need an help to balance the following redox reaction in acid solution.
KClO3 + H2SO4 --> K2SO4 + O2 + ClO2 + H2O
I tried lots of times but I wasn't able to do that. Can you please give me an help? I will love also the explanation of the process, so I can understand it.
Thanks
