Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + NH_4OH ⟶ Fe(OH)_3 + (NH_4)_2SO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + c_2 NH_4OH ⟶ c_3 Fe(OH)_3 + c_4 (NH_4)_2SO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Fe, O, S, H and N: Fe: | 2 c_1 = c_3 O: | 12 c_1 + c_2 = 3 c_3 + 4 c_4 S: | 3 c_1 = c_4 H: | 5 c_2 = 3 c_3 + 8 c_4 N: | c_2 = 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 6 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + 6 NH_4OH ⟶ 2 Fe(OH)_3 + 3 (NH_4)_2SO_4
