O2 + C4H6 = H2O + CO2

Input interpretation

oxygen + 1, 3-butadiene ⟶ water + carbon dioxide
oxygen + 1, 3-butadiene ⟶ water + carbon dioxide

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  Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for O, C and H: O: | 2 c_1 = c_3 + 2 c_4 C: | 4 c_2 = c_4 H: | 6 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_2 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 11/2 c_2 = 1 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 4 Multiply by the least common denominator, 2, to eliminate fractional coefficients: c_1 = 11 c_2 = 2 c_3 = 6 c_4 = 8 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: |   | 11 + 2 ⟶ 6 + 8
