rhombic sulfur + rubidium ⟶ Rb2S
Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ Rb2S Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 Rb2S Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for S and Rb: S: | 8 c_1 = c_3 Rb: | 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 = 16 c_3 = 8 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | + 16 ⟶ 8 Rb2S](../image_source/68896b877b6b33f26fc8978235c28c40.png)
