Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: O_2 + MnO_2 + K_2MnO_4 ⟶ KMnO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 O_2 + c_2 MnO_2 + c_3 K_2MnO_4 ⟶ c_4 KMnO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O, Mn and K: O: | 2 c_1 + 2 c_2 + 4 c_3 = 4 c_4 Mn: | c_2 + c_3 = c_4 K: | 2 c_3 = c_4 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 c_4 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | O_2 + MnO_2 + K_2MnO_4 ⟶ 2 KMnO_4
