Balanced equation
![Balance the chemical equation algebraically: CaSO_4 + BaCl_2 ⟶ CaCl_2 + BaSO_4 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 CaSO_4 + c_2 BaCl_2 ⟶ c_3 CaCl_2 + c_4 BaSO_4 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for Ca, O, S, Ba and Cl: Ca: | c_1 = c_3 O: | 4 c_1 = 4 c_4 S: | c_1 = c_4 Ba: | c_2 = c_4 Cl: | 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 c_4 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | CaSO_4 + BaCl_2 ⟶ CaCl_2 + BaSO_4](../image_source/22610b821359a7418b1adaebed6c3aca.png)
