Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Al(OH)_3 + CH_3CO_2H ⟶ H_2O + Al(C2H3O2)3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Al(OH)_3 + c_2 CH_3CO_2H ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 Al(C2H3O2)3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Al, H, O and C: Al: | c_1 = c_4 H: | 3 c_1 + 4 c_2 = 2 c_3 + 9 c_4 O: | 3 c_1 + 2 c_2 = c_3 + 6 c_4 C: | 2 c_2 = 6 c_4 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | Al(OH)_3 + 3 CH_3CO_2H ⟶ 3 H_2O + Al(C2H3O2)3
