Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Cl_2 + NaOH ⟶ H_2O + Na + NaClO_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Cl_2 + c_2 NaOH ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 Na + c_5 NaClO_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, Na and O: Cl: | 2 c_1 = c_5 H: | c_2 = 2 c_3 Na: | c_2 = c_4 + c_5 O: | c_2 = c_3 + 3 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 12 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 10 c_5 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | Cl_2 + 12 NaOH ⟶ 6 H_2O + 10 Na + 2 NaClO_3
