Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2O_2 + Na_2S_2O_3 ⟶ H_2O + H_2SO_4 + Na_2SO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2O_2 + c_2 Na_2S_2O_3 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 H_2SO_4 + c_5 Na_2SO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, Na and S: H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_3 + 2 c_4 O: | 2 c_1 + 3 c_2 = c_3 + 4 c_4 + 4 c_5 Na: | 2 c_2 = 2 c_5 S: | 2 c_2 = c_4 + 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 = 4 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 H_2O_2 + Na_2S_2O_3 ⟶ 3 H_2O + H_2SO_4 + Na_2SO_4
