HNO3 + Al2O3 = H2O + Al(NO3)3

Input interpretation

nitric acid + aluminum oxide ⟶ water + aluminum nitrate
nitric acid + aluminum oxide ⟶ water + aluminum nitrate

Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically:  + ⟶ +  Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 + c_4  Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O and Al: H: | c_1 = 2 c_3 N: | c_1 = 3 c_4 O: | 3 c_1 + 3 c_2 = c_3 + 9 c_4 Al: | 2 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 6 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 6 + ⟶ 3 + 2
