Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: CaCO_3 + HBr ⟶ H_2CO_3 + CaBr_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 CaCO_3 + c_2 HBr ⟶ c_3 H_2CO_3 + c_4 CaBr_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for C, Ca, O, Br and H: C: | c_1 = c_3 Ca: | c_1 = c_4 O: | 3 c_1 = 3 c_3 Br: | c_2 = 2 c_4 H: | c_2 = 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | CaCO_3 + 2 HBr ⟶ H_2CO_3 + CaBr_2
