Input interpretation
H_2SO_4 (sulfuric acid) + KMnO_4 (potassium permanganate) + C_6H_12O_6 (D-(+)-glucose) ⟶ H_2O (water) + CO_2 (carbon dioxide) + K_2SO_4 (potassium sulfate) + MnSO_4 (manganese(II) sulfate)
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2SO_4 + KMnO_4 + C_6H_12O_6 ⟶ H_2O + CO_2 + K_2SO_4 + MnSO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2SO_4 + c_2 KMnO_4 + c_3 C_6H_12O_6 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 CO_2 + c_6 K_2SO_4 + 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 C: H: | 2 c_1 + 12 c_3 = 2 c_4 O: | 4 c_1 + 4 c_2 + 6 c_3 = c_4 + 2 c_5 + 4 c_6 + 4 c_7 S: | c_1 = c_6 + c_7 K: | c_2 = 2 c_6 Mn: | c_2 = c_7 C: | 6 c_3 = c_5 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 36/5 c_2 = 24/5 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 66/5 c_5 = 6 c_6 = 12/5 c_7 = 24/5 Multiply by the least common denominator, 5, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 36 c_2 = 24 c_3 = 5 c_4 = 66 c_5 = 30 c_6 = 12 c_7 = 24 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 36 H_2SO_4 + 24 KMnO_4 + 5 C_6H_12O_6 ⟶ 66 H_2O + 30 CO_2 + 12 K_2SO_4 + 24 MnSO_4
