Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Cr + S_8 ⟶ CrS Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Cr + c_2 S_8 ⟶ c_3 CrS Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cr and S: Cr: | c_1 = c_3 S: | 8 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 = 8 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 8 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 8 Cr + S_8 ⟶ 8 CrS
