Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: KOH + KMnO_4 + SO_2 ⟶ H_2O + K_2SO_4 + K_2MnO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 KOH + c_2 KMnO_4 + c_3 SO_2 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 K_2SO_4 + c_6 K_2MnO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, K, O, Mn and S: H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 K: | c_1 + c_2 = 2 c_5 + 2 c_6 O: | c_1 + 4 c_2 + 2 c_3 = c_4 + 4 c_5 + 4 c_6 Mn: | c_2 = c_6 S: | c_3 = c_5 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 KOH + 2 KMnO_4 + SO_2 ⟶ 2 H_2O + K_2SO_4 + 2 K_2MnO_4
