Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NaOH + PbO_2 + NaCrO2 ⟶ H_2O + Na_2CrO_4 + NaPbO2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NaOH + c_2 PbO_2 + c_3 NaCrO2 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 Na_2CrO_4 + c_6 NaPbO2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, Na, O, Pb and Cr: H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 Na: | c_1 + c_3 = 2 c_5 + c_6 O: | c_1 + 2 c_2 + 2 c_3 = c_4 + 4 c_5 + 2 c_6 Pb: | c_2 = c_6 Cr: | c_3 = 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 3 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 4 NaOH + 3 PbO_2 + NaCrO2 ⟶ 2 H_2O + Na_2CrO_4 + 3 NaPbO2
