Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ + + + Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 + c_4 + c_5 + c_6 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O, Al and S: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 N: | c_1 = c_5 + 3 c_6 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + 2 c_5 + 9 c_6 Al: | 2 c_2 = c_6 S: | 3 c_2 = c_4 Since the coefficients are relative quantities and underdetermined, choose a coefficient to set arbitrarily. To keep the coefficients small, the arbitrary value is ordinarily one. For instance, set c_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 12 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 6 c_6 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 12 + ⟶ 6 + 3 + 6 + 2](../image_source/e12914c3b8465abe3d3d29abc98f6289.png)
