Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HNO_3 + FeI_2 ⟶ H_2O + NO_2 + HIO_3 + Fe(NO_3)_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HNO_3 + c_2 FeI_2 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 NO_2 + c_5 HIO_3 + c_6 Fe(NO_3)_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O, Fe and I: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 + c_5 N: | c_1 = c_4 + 2 c_6 O: | 3 c_1 = c_3 + 2 c_4 + 3 c_5 + 6 c_6 Fe: | c_2 = c_6 I: | 2 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 = 14 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 12 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 14 HNO_3 + FeI_2 ⟶ 6 H_2O + 12 NO_2 + 2 HIO_3 + Fe(NO_3)_2
