HNO3 + As2S3 = H2O + SO2 + NO2 + H3AsO4

Input interpretation

nitric acid + arsenic(III) sulfide ⟶ water + sulfur dioxide + nitrogen dioxide + arsenic acid, solid
nitric acid + arsenic(III) sulfide ⟶ water + sulfur dioxide + nitrogen dioxide + arsenic acid, solid

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 + c_5 + c_6  Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O, As and S: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 + 3 c_6 N: | c_1 = c_5 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + 2 c_4 + 2 c_5 + 4 c_6 As: | 2 c_2 = c_6 S: | 3 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 = 22 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 8 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 22 c_6 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 22 + ⟶ 8 + 3 + 22 + 2
