Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HCl + HNO_3 + Cu ⟶ H_2O + NO + CuCl_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HCl + c_2 HNO_3 + c_3 Cu ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 NO + c_6 CuCl_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, N, O and Cu: Cl: | c_1 = 2 c_6 H: | c_1 + c_2 = 2 c_4 N: | c_2 = c_5 O: | 3 c_2 = c_4 + c_5 Cu: | c_3 = c_6 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 = 3 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 3/2 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 3/2 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 6 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 4 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 6 HCl + 2 HNO_3 + 3 Cu ⟶ 4 H_2O + 2 NO + 3 CuCl_2
