Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: C + Fe(CrO2)2 ⟶ Fe + CO + Cr Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 C + c_2 Fe(CrO2)2 ⟶ c_3 Fe + c_4 CO + c_5 Cr Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for C, Fe, Cr and O: C: | c_1 = c_4 Fe: | c_2 = c_3 Cr: | 2 c_2 = c_5 O: | 4 c_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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 4 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 4 c_5 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 C + Fe(CrO2)2 ⟶ Fe + 4 CO + 2 Cr
