Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2O + NaOH + P ⟶ PH_3 + NaH_2PO_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2O + c_2 NaOH + c_3 P ⟶ c_4 PH_3 + c_5 NaH_2PO_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, Na and P: H: | 2 c_1 + c_2 = 3 c_4 + 2 c_5 O: | c_1 + c_2 = 2 c_5 Na: | c_2 = c_5 P: | c_3 = c_4 + 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 3 H_2O + 3 NaOH + 4 P ⟶ PH_3 + 3 NaH_2PO_2
