Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2SO_4 + KMnO_4 + N_2O ⟶ H_2O + K_2SO_4 + NO_2 + MnSO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2SO_4 + c_2 KMnO_4 + c_3 N_2O ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 K_2SO_4 + c_6 NO_2 + c_7 MnSO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, S, K, Mn and N: H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_4 O: | 4 c_1 + 4 c_2 + c_3 = c_4 + 4 c_5 + 2 c_6 + 4 c_7 S: | c_1 = c_5 + c_7 K: | c_2 = 2 c_5 Mn: | c_2 = c_7 N: | 2 c_3 = 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_5 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 5/3 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 10/3 c_7 = 2 Multiply by the least common denominator, 3, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 9 c_2 = 6 c_3 = 5 c_4 = 9 c_5 = 3 c_6 = 10 c_7 = 6 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 9 H_2SO_4 + 6 KMnO_4 + 5 N_2O ⟶ 9 H_2O + 3 K_2SO_4 + 10 NO_2 + 6 MnSO_4
