Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HCl + Na_2Cr_2O_7 ⟶ H_2O + Cl_2 + NaCl + CrCl_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HCl + c_2 Na_2Cr_2O_7 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 Cl_2 + c_5 NaCl + c_6 CrCl_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, Cr, Na and O: Cl: | c_1 = 2 c_4 + c_5 + 3 c_6 H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 Cr: | 2 c_2 = c_6 Na: | 2 c_2 = c_5 O: | 7 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 = 14 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 7 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 14 HCl + Na_2Cr_2O_7 ⟶ 7 H_2O + 3 Cl_2 + 2 NaCl + 2 CrCl_3
