Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: CO_2 + Mg ⟶ CO + MgO Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 CO_2 + c_2 Mg ⟶ c_3 CO + c_4 MgO Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for C, O and Mg: C: | c_1 = c_3 O: | 2 c_1 = c_3 + c_4 Mg: | c_2 = c_4 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 = 1 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | CO_2 + Mg ⟶ CO + MgO](../image_source/ddf8cbd67f457d81d6a9a11a49bba600.png)
