Input interpretation

chlorine + silver nitrate ⟶ oxygen + silver chloride + dinitrogen pentoxide
chlorine + silver nitrate ⟶ oxygen + silver chloride + dinitrogen pentoxide

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 + c_5  Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Cl, Ag, N and O: Cl: | 2 c_1 = c_4 Ag: | c_2 = c_4 N: | c_2 = 2 c_5 O: | 3 c_2 = 2 c_3 + 5 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 = 2 c_2 = 4 c_3 = 1 c_4 = 4 c_5 = 2 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 2 + 4 ⟶ + 4 + 2
