Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: NH_3 + ZnO ⟶ H_2O + Zn + N_2 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 NH_3 + c_2 ZnO ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 Zn + c_5 N_2 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, N, O and Zn: H: | 3 c_1 = 2 c_3 N: | c_1 = 2 c_5 O: | c_2 = c_3 Zn: | 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_5 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 2 NH_3 + 3 ZnO ⟶ 3 H_2O + 3 Zn + N_2](../image_source/74331fa798600f7f0caf3cfec487eb37.png)
