Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: KOH + Hg_2(NO_3)_2 ⟶ H_2O + KNO_3 + Hg + HgO Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 KOH + c_2 Hg_2(NO_3)_2 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 KNO_3 + c_5 Hg + c_6 HgO Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, K, O, Hg and N: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 K: | c_1 = c_4 O: | c_1 + 3 c_2 = c_3 + 3 c_4 + c_6 Hg: | c_2 = c_5 + c_6 N: | c_2 = 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 KOH + 2 Hg_2(NO_3)_2 ⟶ H_2O + 2 KNO_3 + Hg + HgO
