Balanced equation

Balance the chemical equation algebraically: HCl + SnCl_2 + HNO_2 ⟶ H_2O + NO + SnCl_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 HCl + c_2 SnCl_2 + c_3 HNO_2 ⟶ c_4 H_2O + c_5 NO + c_6 SnCl_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, H, Sn, N and O: Cl: | c_1 + 2 c_2 = 4 c_6 H: | c_1 + c_3 = 2 c_4 Sn: | c_2 = c_6 N: | c_3 = c_5 O: | 2 c_3 = 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 2 c_4 = 2 c_5 = 2 c_6 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 2 HCl + SnCl_2 + 2 HNO_2 ⟶ 2 H_2O + 2 NO + SnCl_4
