Input interpretation
HCl hydrogen chloride + NaI sodium iodide + NaIO_3 sodium iodate ⟶ H_2O water + I_2 iodine + NaCl sodium chloride
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HCl + NaI + NaIO_3 ⟶ H_2O + I_2 + NaCl Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HCl + c_2 NaI + c_3 NaIO_3 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 I_2 + c_6 NaCl Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, I, Na and O: Cl: | c_1 = c_6 H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 I: | c_2 + c_3 = 2 c_5 Na: | c_2 + c_3 = c_6 O: | 3 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 6 c_2 = 5 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 3 c_6 = 6 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 6 HCl + 5 NaI + NaIO_3 ⟶ 3 H_2O + 3 I_2 + 6 NaCl
