Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NaOH + S ⟶ H_2O + Na_2S + H_2SO_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NaOH + c_2 S ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 Na_2S + c_5 H_2SO_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, Na, O and S: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 + 2 c_5 Na: | c_1 = 2 c_4 O: | c_1 = c_3 + 3 c_5 S: | c_2 = c_4 + 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 = 4 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 4 NaOH + 3 S ⟶ H_2O + 2 Na_2S + H_2SO_3
