Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: ZnS ⟶ S + Zn Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 ZnS ⟶ c_2 S + c_3 Zn Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for S and Zn: S: | c_1 = c_2 Zn: | 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 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | ZnS ⟶ S + Zn](../image_source/0d42a0b6384886160573db5d02523f3c.png)
