Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_3PO_4 + AgNO_3 ⟶ HNO_3 + Ag_3PO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_3PO_4 + c_2 AgNO_3 ⟶ c_3 HNO_3 + c_4 Ag_3PO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, P, Ag and N: H: | 3 c_1 = c_3 O: | 4 c_1 + 3 c_2 = 3 c_3 + 4 c_4 P: | c_1 = c_4 Ag: | c_2 = 3 c_4 N: | c_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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | H_3PO_4 + 3 AgNO_3 ⟶ 3 HNO_3 + Ag_3PO_4
