Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Mg + HClO3 ⟶ H_2O + MgCl_2 + Mg(ClO3)2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Mg + c_2 HClO3 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 MgCl_2 + c_5 Mg(ClO3)2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Mg, H, Cl and O: Mg: | c_1 = c_4 + c_5 H: | c_2 = 2 c_3 Cl: | c_2 = 2 c_4 + 2 c_5 O: | 3 c_2 = c_3 + 6 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 6 c_2 = 12 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 5 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 6 Mg + 12 HClO3 ⟶ 6 H_2O + MgCl_2 + 5 Mg(ClO3)2
