Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HNO_3 + AsH_3 ⟶ H_2O + NO_2 + H_3AsO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HNO_3 + c_2 AsH_3 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 NO_2 + c_5 H_3AsO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O and As: H: | c_1 + 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 + 3 c_5 N: | c_1 = c_4 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + 2 c_4 + 4 c_5 As: | c_2 = 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 8 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 8 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 8 HNO_3 + AsH_3 ⟶ 4 H_2O + 8 NO_2 + H_3AsO_4
