Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Hg + F_4Xe_1 ⟶ Xe + HgF_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Hg + c_2 F_4Xe_1 ⟶ c_3 Xe + c_4 HgF_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Hg, F and Xe: Hg: | c_1 = c_4 F: | 4 c_2 = 2 c_4 Xe: | c_2 = c_3 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 Hg + F_4Xe_1 ⟶ Xe + 2 HgF_2](../image_source/9671ae25bc284d64edfb9d63b6e1e707.png)
