Input interpretation
hydrogen chloride + iron + nitrobenzene ⟶ water + iron(II) chloride + C6H5NH3Cl
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + + ⟶ + + C6H5NH3Cl Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 + c_3 ⟶ c_4 + c_5 + c_6 C6H5NH3Cl Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, Fe, C, N and O: Cl: | c_1 = 2 c_5 + c_6 H: | c_1 + 5 c_3 = 2 c_4 + 8 c_6 Fe: | c_2 = c_5 C: | 6 c_3 = 6 c_6 N: | c_3 = c_6 O: | 2 c_3 = 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_3 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 7 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 3 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 7 + 3 + ⟶ 2 + 3 + C6H5NH3Cl
