Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NaOH + Hg_2Cl_2 + SbCl_3 ⟶ H_2O + NaCl + Hg + NaSbO3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NaOH + c_2 Hg_2Cl_2 + c_3 SbCl_3 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 NaCl + c_6 Hg + c_7 NaSbO3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, Na, O, Cl, Hg and Sb: H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 Na: | c_1 = c_5 + c_7 O: | c_1 = c_4 + 3 c_7 Cl: | 2 c_2 + 3 c_3 = c_5 Hg: | 2 c_2 = c_6 Sb: | c_3 = c_7 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 = 6 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 5 c_6 = 2 c_7 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 6 NaOH + Hg_2Cl_2 + SbCl_3 ⟶ 3 H_2O + 5 NaCl + 2 Hg + NaSbO3
