NaOH sodium hydroxide + Br_2 bromine + Sb_2O_3 antimony trioxide ⟶ H_2O water + NaBr sodium bromide + Na3SbO4

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NaOH + Br_2 + Sb_2O_3 ⟶ H_2O + NaBr + Na3SbO4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NaOH + c_2 Br_2 + c_3 Sb_2O_3 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 NaBr + c_6 Na3SbO4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, Na, O, Br and Sb: H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 Na: | c_1 = c_5 + 3 c_6 O: | c_1 + 3 c_3 = c_4 + 4 c_6 Br: | 2 c_2 = c_5 Sb: | 2 c_3 = 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 10 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 5 c_5 = 4 c_6 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 10 NaOH + 2 Br_2 + Sb_2O_3 ⟶ 5 H_2O + 4 NaBr + 2 Na3SbO4
