NH3 + AgCl = [Ag(NH3)2]Cl

ammonia + silver chloride ⟶ Ag(NH3)2Cl

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ Ag(NH3)2Cl Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 Ag(NH3)2Cl Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, Ag and Cl: H: | 3 c_1 = 6 c_3 N: | c_1 = 2 c_3 Ag: | c_2 = c_3 Cl: | c_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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 + ⟶ Ag(NH3)2Cl

+ ⟶ Ag(NH3)2Cl
