Input interpretation

calcium chloride + silver nitrate ⟶ silver chloride + calcium nitrate
calcium chloride + silver nitrate ⟶ silver chloride + calcium nitrate

Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically:  + ⟶ +  Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 + c_4  Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Ca, Cl, Ag, N and O: Ca: | c_1 = c_4 Cl: | 2 c_1 = c_3 Ag: | c_2 = c_3 N: | c_2 = 2 c_4 O: | 3 c_2 = 6 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | + 2 ⟶ 2 +
