H2O + MnSO4 + NaMnO4 = H2SO4 + Na2SO4 + MnO2

H_2O water + MnSO_4 manganese(II) sulfate + NaMnO_4 sodium permanganate ⟶ H_2SO_4 sulfuric acid + Na_2SO_4 sodium sulfate + MnO_2 manganese dioxide

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2O + MnSO_4 + NaMnO_4 ⟶ H_2SO_4 + Na_2SO_4 + MnO_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2O + c_2 MnSO_4 + c_3 NaMnO_4 ⟶ c_4 H_2SO_4 + c_5 Na_2SO_4 + c_6 MnO_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, Mn, S and Na: H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_4 O: | c_1 + 4 c_2 + 4 c_3 = 4 c_4 + 4 c_5 + 2 c_6 Mn: | c_2 + c_3 = c_6 S: | c_2 = c_4 + c_5 Na: | c_3 = 2 c_5 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_5 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 5 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 H_2O + 3 MnSO_4 + 2 NaMnO_4 ⟶ 2 H_2SO_4 + Na_2SO_4 + 5 MnO_2
