Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: SO_2 + K_2O ⟶ K_2SO_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 SO_2 + c_2 K_2O ⟶ c_3 K_2SO_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O, S and K: O: | 2 c_1 + c_2 = 3 c_3 S: | c_1 = c_3 K: | 2 c_2 = 2 c_3 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_1 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 1 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | SO_2 + K_2O ⟶ K_2SO_3](../image_source/cd4e76102fc4c0adebeadcfff18111ee.png)
