Reaction between sodium hypochlorite and potassium bromide

[rizthais]

Hello, I have a question about the reaction between sodium hypochlorite NaClO and potassium bromide KBr.

Could it produce sodium hypobromite NaBrO ? And how would the equation be balanced ?

Also, could it be a redox reaction ?

For more precision, I am doing a reaction between sodium hypochlorite and potassium bromide but I am unsure what it produces. I know there must be some form of bromine in the products, but I don't know if it's just sodium hypobromite or if bromine is present in other forms.

I hope I'm being clear in my explanations !
Thank you for considering my request.

It depends of the pH.
In alkaline solution pH 10- 14 hypo bromite can be produced. In neutral to acidic bromate and chlorate will be produced.
Of course it's a redox reaction.
