Input interpretation
ammonium hydroxide + D-(+)-glucose + Ag(NH3)2NO3 ⟶ water + ammonia + silver + ammonium nitrate + formic acid
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + + Ag(NH3)2NO3 ⟶ + + + + Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 + c_3 Ag(NH3)2NO3 ⟶ c_4 + c_5 + c_6 + c_7 + c_8 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O, C and Ag: H: | 5 c_1 + 12 c_2 + 6 c_3 = 2 c_4 + 3 c_5 + 4 c_7 + 2 c_8 N: | c_1 + 3 c_3 = c_5 + 2 c_7 O: | c_1 + 6 c_2 + 3 c_3 = c_4 + 3 c_7 + 2 c_8 C: | 6 c_2 = c_8 Ag: | 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_4 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_3 = -8/3 + (8 c_1)/3 - 4 c_2 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 3 c_1 - 2 c_6 = -8/3 + (8 c_1)/3 - 4 c_2 c_7 = -3 + 3 c_1 - 6 c_2 c_8 = 6 c_2 The resulting system of equations is still underdetermined, so additional coefficients must be set arbitrarily. Set c_1 = 10 and c_2 = 3 and solve for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 10 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 12 c_4 = 1 c_5 = 28 c_6 = 12 c_7 = 9 c_8 = 18 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 10 + 3 + 12 Ag(NH3)2NO3 ⟶ + 28 + 12 + 9 + 18
