Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2O + I_2 + P ⟶ H_3PO_4 + HI Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2O + c_2 I_2 + c_3 P ⟶ c_4 H_3PO_4 + c_5 HI Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, I and P: H: | 2 c_1 = 3 c_4 + c_5 O: | c_1 = 4 c_4 I: | 2 c_2 = c_5 P: | c_3 = 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. For instance, set c_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 5/2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 5 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 8 c_2 = 5 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 10 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 8 H_2O + 5 I_2 + 2 P ⟶ 2 H_3PO_4 + 10 HI
