chlorine + sodium hydroxide ⟶ water + sodium chloride + sodium hypochlorite
Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ + + Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 + c_4 + c_5 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, Na and O: Cl: | 2 c_1 = c_4 + c_5 H: | c_2 = 2 c_3 Na: | c_2 = c_4 + c_5 O: | c_2 = c_3 + c_5 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 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | + 2 ⟶ + +](../image_source/6f90ea8d0a72675b8f00a20dcd158786.png)
