Input interpretation
ammonia + Cu(H2O)4SO4 ⟶ water + Cu(NH3)4SO4
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + Cu(H2O)4SO4 ⟶ + Cu(NH3)4SO4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 Cu(H2O)4SO4 ⟶ c_3 + c_4 Cu(NH3)4SO4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, Cu, O and S: H: | 3 c_1 + 8 c_2 = 2 c_3 + 12 c_4 N: | c_1 = 4 c_4 Cu: | c_2 = c_4 O: | 8 c_2 = c_3 + 4 c_4 S: | c_2 = 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 = 4 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 4 + Cu(H2O)4SO4 ⟶ 4 + Cu(NH3)4SO4
