ReactionBalance
ReactionBalance[rxn]
returns a version of the reaction rxn in which the stoichiometric coefficients for elements in the reactants and products are balanced.
Details
- rxn should be a ChemicalReaction object or a string that can be converted into a reaction.
- If the reaction cannot be balanced, a Failure object is returned.
