oxygen + chromium ⟶ chromium(III) oxide
Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O and Cr: O: | 2 c_1 = 3 c_3 Cr: | c_2 = 2 c_3 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 = 3/2 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 4 c_3 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 3 + 4 ⟶ 2](../image_source/4b4b9574677c7db99acbd4afe0fc7505.png)
