Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2S + Mg(OH)_2 ⟶ H_2O + MgS Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2S + c_2 Mg(OH)_2 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 MgS Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, S, Mg and O: H: | 2 c_1 + 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 S: | c_1 = c_4 Mg: | c_2 = c_4 O: | 2 c_2 = c_3 Since the coefficients are relative quantities and underdetermined, choose a coefficient to set arbitrarily.
