Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: MgCl_2 + K3PO4 ⟶ KCl + Mg_3(PO_4)_2·5H_2O Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 MgCl_2 + c_2 K3PO4 ⟶ c_3 KCl + c_4 Mg_3(PO_4)_2·5H_2O Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, Mg, K, P and O: Cl: | 2 c_1 = c_3 Mg: | c_1 = 3 c_4 K: | 3 c_2 = c_3 P: | c_2 = 2 c_4 O: | 4 c_2 = 8 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 3 MgCl_2 + 2 K3PO4 ⟶ 6 KCl + Mg_3(PO_4)_2·5H_2O
