Input interpretation
ethylene + triethylaluminum ⟶ Al(C8H17)3
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: + ⟶ Al(C8H17)3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 + c_2 ⟶ c_3 Al(C8H17)3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for C, H and Al: C: | 2 c_1 + 6 c_2 = 24 c_3 H: | 4 c_1 + 15 c_2 = 51 c_3 Al: | c_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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 9 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 9 + ⟶ Al(C8H17)3
