Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: O_2 + Cl_2 ⟶ Cl2O2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 O_2 + c_2 Cl_2 ⟶ c_3 Cl2O2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O and Cl: O: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_3 Cl: | 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | O_2 + Cl_2 ⟶ Cl2O2](../image_source/414e5d03796ff1e3b0d9a00707e0d270.png)
