Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2S + CrO_3 ⟶ S + Cr(OH)3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2S + c_2 CrO_3 ⟶ c_3 S + c_4 Cr(OH)3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, S, Cr and O: H: | 2 c_1 = 3 c_4 S: | c_1 = c_3 Cr: | c_2 = c_4 O: | 3 c_2 = 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3/2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 3/2 c_4 = 1 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 3 H_2S + 2 CrO_3 ⟶ 3 S + 2 Cr(OH)3](../image_source/a152bbe374b084595423e605f6ef9707.png)
