Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: KMnO_4 + C_6H_5C_2H_5 ⟶ H_2O + KOH + MnO_2 + K_2CO_3 + C_6H_5COOH Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 KMnO_4 + c_2 C_6H_5C_2H_5 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 KOH + c_5 MnO_2 + c_6 K_2CO_3 + c_7 C_6H_5COOH Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for K, Mn, O, C and H: K: | c_1 = c_4 + 2 c_6 Mn: | c_1 = c_5 O: | 4 c_1 = c_3 + c_4 + 2 c_5 + 3 c_6 + 2 c_7 C: | 8 c_2 = c_6 + 7 c_7 H: | 10 c_2 = 2 c_3 + c_4 + 6 c_7 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_2 = 1 c_3 = c_1/2 - 1 c_4 = 18/5 - (2 c_1)/5 c_5 = c_1 c_6 = (7 c_1)/10 - 9/5 c_7 = 7/5 - c_1/10 The resulting system of equations is still underdetermined, so an additional coefficient must be set arbitrarily. Set c_1 = 4 and solve for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 4 c_6 = 1 c_7 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 KMnO_4 + C_6H_5C_2H_5 ⟶ H_2O + 2 KOH + 4 MnO_2 + K_2CO_3 + C_6H_5COOH
