Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HNO_3 + Sn ⟶ H_2O + NO + NO_2 + H2SnO3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HNO_3 + c_2 Sn ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 NO + c_5 NO_2 + c_6 H2SnO3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O and Sn: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 + 2 c_6 N: | c_1 = c_4 + c_5 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + c_4 + 2 c_5 + 3 c_6 Sn: | c_2 = c_6 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_2 = c_1/2 - 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = c_1/2 - 2 c_5 = c_1/2 + 2 c_6 = c_1/2 - 1 The resulting system of equations is still underdetermined, so an additional coefficient must be set arbitrarily. Set c_1 = 8 and solve for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 8 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 6 c_6 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 8 HNO_3 + 3 Sn ⟶ H_2O + 2 NO + 6 NO_2 + 3 H2SnO3
