Balanced equation

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 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | Zn + SnCl_2 ⟶ ZnCl_2 + Sn](../image_source/986ccdf39b61ca1c3cff5dc6359e046a.png)
