Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2SO_4 + KI ⟶ H_2O + K_2SO_4 + I_2 + K2S Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2SO_4 + c_2 KI ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 K_2SO_4 + c_5 I_2 + c_6 K2S Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, S, I and K: H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_3 O: | 4 c_1 = c_3 + 4 c_4 S: | c_1 = c_4 + c_6 I: | c_2 = 2 c_5 K: | c_2 = 2 c_4 + 2 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_6 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 8 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 4 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 4 H_2SO_4 + 8 KI ⟶ 4 H_2O + 3 K_2SO_4 + 4 I_2 + K2S
