Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: Na_2SO_4 + Cu(OH)_2 ⟶ H_2SO_4 + CuO + Na_2O Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 Na_2SO_4 + c_2 Cu(OH)_2 ⟶ c_3 H_2SO_4 + c_4 CuO + c_5 Na_2O Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Na, O, S, Cu and H: Na: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_5 O: | 4 c_1 + 2 c_2 = 4 c_3 + c_4 + c_5 S: | c_1 = c_3 Cu: | c_2 = c_4 H: | 2 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | Na_2SO_4 + Cu(OH)_2 ⟶ H_2SO_4 + CuO + Na_2O
