Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NH_4Cl + Mg_3N_2 ⟶ NH_3 + MgCl_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NH_4Cl + c_2 Mg_3N_2 ⟶ c_3 NH_3 + c_4 MgCl_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, N and Mg: Cl: | c_1 = 2 c_4 H: | 4 c_1 = 3 c_3 N: | c_1 + 2 c_2 = c_3 Mg: | 3 c_2 = c_4 Since the coefficients are relative quantities and underdetermined, choose a coefficient to set arbitrarily.
