Balanced equation

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 = 4 c_2 = 4 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 2 c_7 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 4 HCl + 4 NaNO_3 + Au ⟶ 3 HNO_3 + NO + 2 Na_2O + HAuCl_4·xH_2O
