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 + c_6 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, Na, O, Cl and As: H: | c_1 = 2 c_4 Na: | c_1 + c_2 + c_3 = c_5 + 3 c_6 O: | c_1 + 4 c_2 + 2 c_3 = c_4 + 4 c_6 Cl: | c_2 = c_5 As: | c_3 = c_6 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 = 8 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 4 c_4 = 4 c_5 = 1 c_6 = 4 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 8 + + 4 ⟶ 4 + + 4](../image_source/6b61731524fbf96c51733235b3e54dd1.png)
