Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HNO_3 + CoS ⟶ H_2O + S + NO + CoN_2O_6 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HNO_3 + c_2 CoS ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 S + c_5 NO + c_6 CoN_2O_6 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O, Co and S: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 N: | c_1 = c_5 + 2 c_6 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + c_5 + 6 c_6 Co: | c_2 = c_6 S: | 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_5 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 3/2 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 3/2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 3/2 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 8 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 8 HNO_3 + 3 CoS ⟶ 4 H_2O + 3 S + 2 NO + 3 CoN_2O_6
