    |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  
    | • | Now figure out
    how to get the same no of 
 |  |  
    |  |  
    |  | atoms of each
    kind on both sides by using 
 |  |  
    |  |  
    |  | whole no
    coefficients in front of the species. 
 |  
    |  |  
    | • | As       H2  + _N2  NH3,
    then 
 |  |  
    |  |  |  
    |  |  
    | • | H2  + _N2  _ NH3,  then 
 |  |  
    |  |  |  
    |  |  
    | • | _ H2  +  _N2  _ NH3 
 |  |  
    |  |  |  
    |  |  
    | • | Now have _ H’s,
    _N’s on both sides and the 
 |  |  
    |  |  
    |  | lowest set of
    whole no coefficients have 
 |  |  
    |  |  
    |  | been used.  The equation is balanced.
