Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: FeCl_2 + SnCl_4 ⟶ FeCl_3 + SnCl_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 FeCl_2 + c_2 SnCl_4 ⟶ c_3 FeCl_3 + c_4 SnCl_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, Fe and Sn: Cl: | 2 c_1 + 4 c_2 = 3 c_3 + 2 c_4 Fe: | c_1 = c_3 Sn: | 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 FeCl_2 + SnCl_4 ⟶ 2 FeCl_3 + SnCl_2](../image_source/782972a491994aa08e2767d945ad8c31.png)
