Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HNO_3 + Mg ⟶ H_2O + NO + MgH(NO3)2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HNO_3 + c_2 Mg ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 NO + c_5 MgH(NO3)2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O and Mg: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 + c_5 N: | c_1 = c_4 + 2 c_5 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + c_4 + 6 c_5 Mg: | c_2 = 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 = 7 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 7 HNO_3 + 3 Mg ⟶ 2 H_2O + NO + 3 MgH(NO3)2
