Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + HI ⟶ H_2SO_4 + I_2 + FeSO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + c_2 HI ⟶ c_3 H_2SO_4 + c_4 I_2 + c_5 FeSO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Fe, O, S, H and I: Fe: | 2 c_1 = c_5 O: | 12 c_1 = 4 c_3 + 4 c_5 S: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + c_5 H: | c_2 = 2 c_3 I: | c_2 = 2 c_4 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 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O + 2 HI ⟶ H_2SO_4 + I_2 + 2 FeSO_4
