Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: KMnO_4 + CH_3CH_2OH ⟶ H_2O + KOH + MnO_2 + CH_3COOK Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 KMnO_4 + c_2 CH_3CH_2OH ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 KOH + c_5 MnO_2 + c_6 CH_3COOK Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for K, Mn, O, C and H: K: | c_1 = c_4 + c_6 Mn: | c_1 = c_5 O: | 4 c_1 + c_2 = c_3 + c_4 + 2 c_5 + 2 c_6 C: | 2 c_2 = 2 c_6 H: | 6 c_2 = 2 c_3 + c_4 + 3 c_6 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 4 c_6 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 KMnO_4 + 3 CH_3CH_2OH ⟶ 4 H_2O + KOH + 4 MnO_2 + 3 CH_3COOK
