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 = 1 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | CuCl_2 + K2S ⟶ 2 KCl + CuS](../image_source/c281de4f7f1777fe772fb506b6c4113d.png)
