Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: KI + SbCl_5 ⟶ I_2 + KCl + SbCl_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 KI + c_2 SbCl_5 ⟶ c_3 I_2 + c_4 KCl + c_5 SbCl_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for I, K, Cl and Sb: I: | c_1 = 2 c_3 K: | c_1 = c_4 Cl: | 5 c_2 = c_4 + 3 c_5 Sb: | c_2 = c_5 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 = 2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 2 KI + SbCl_5 ⟶ I_2 + 2 KCl + SbCl_3
