Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Cl_2 + MgBr_2 ⟶ Br_2 + MgCl_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Cl_2 + c_2 MgBr_2 ⟶ c_3 Br_2 + c_4 MgCl_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, Br and Mg: Cl: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_4 Br: | 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 Mg: | c_2 = 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.
