Input interpretation
water + sodium sulfide + Ca(ClO)2 ⟶ sodium hydroxide + mixed sulfur + calcium chloride
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + + Ca(ClO)2 ⟶ + + Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 + c_3 Ca(ClO)2 ⟶ c_4 + c_5 + c_6 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, Na, S, Ca and Cl: H: | 2 c_1 = c_4 O: | c_1 + 2 c_3 = c_4 Na: | 2 c_2 = c_4 S: | c_2 = c_5 Ca: | c_3 = c_6 Cl: | 2 c_3 = 2 c_6 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 = 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 4 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 + 2 + Ca(ClO)2 ⟶ 4 + 2 +
Structures
