gollark: There's probably some way to rewrite them as a bunch of equations, say, then solve those - you know the amount of X atom/ion on the left is equal to the amount on the right, and you know the amount on the left is equal to (moles of reactant A * 3 + moles of reactant B * 2) and so on.
gollark: I think what humans do is randomly guess a bit, tweak the numbers so they match better, then infer the rest when they reach something consistent.
