Input interpretation
(CuOH)2CO3 ⟶ water + carbon dioxide + cupric oxide
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: (CuOH)2CO3 ⟶ + + Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 (CuOH)2CO3 ⟶ c_2 + c_3 + c_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cu, O, H and C: Cu: | 2 c_1 = c_4 O: | 5 c_1 = c_2 + 2 c_3 + c_4 H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_2 C: | c_1 = 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 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | (CuOH)2CO3 ⟶ + + 2
