Arithmetic stoichiometric coefficient

This chemical equation, besides the chemical species being involved, includes numbers placed in front of each species (e.g. 2 for N2) that are called the arithmetic stoichiometric coefficients. The set of coefficients belonging to a reaction may be multiphed or divided by the same number without modifying the reaction in any way. For example, the above reaction could also be written by multiplying all the stoichiometric coefficients by two in the following ...
