Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: O_2 + HOCH_2CH(OH)CH_2OH ⟶ H_2O + CO_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 O_2 + c_2 HOCH_2CH(OH)CH_2OH ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 CO_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O, C and H: O: | 2 c_1 + 3 c_2 = c_3 + 2 c_4 C: | 3 c_2 = c_4 H: | 8 c_2 = 2 c_3 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 = 7/2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 3 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 7 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 8 c_4 = 6 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 7 O_2 + 2 HOCH_2CH(OH)CH_2OH ⟶ 8 H_2O + 6 CO_2
