Solid trisulfur hexoxide and liquid water react to form sulfurous acid.

Half my eauation is S3O6(s) + H2O(l)------> ?

I am not sure what happens to produce H2SO3. . .could the product be:
    H2SO3(aq) + SO2. . .DAMN IT I tought I had it.

Classic

use 3H2O to produce 3H2SO3.
As far as I know SO2 is a monomer but SO3 forms trimer S3O9
