Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2SO_4 + FeCl_3 ⟶ HCl + Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2SO_4 + c_2 FeCl_3 ⟶ c_3 HCl + c_4 Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, S, Cl and Fe: H: | 2 c_1 = c_3 O: | 4 c_1 = 12 c_4 S: | c_1 = 3 c_4 Cl: | 3 c_2 = c_3 Fe: | c_2 = 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 3 H_2SO_4 + 2 FeCl_3 ⟶ 6 HCl + Fe_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O](../image_source/03c1656918b27e54e10c0be32a8c4222.png)
