Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HCl + K_2CO_3 ⟶ KCl + H_2CO_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HCl + c_2 K_2CO_3 ⟶ c_3 KCl + c_4 H_2CO_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, C, K and O: Cl: | c_1 = c_3 H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 C: | c_2 = c_4 K: | 2 c_2 = c_3 O: | 3 c_2 = 3 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.
