-One use of defining a species as a compound is that they can be used to balance reactions to that the number of components are the same on both sides. Catalyst provides the `balance_reaction` function, which takes a reaction, and returns a balanced version. E.g. let us consider a reaction when carbon dioxide is formed from carbon and oxide `C + O --> CO2`. Here, `balance_reaction` enables us to find coefficients creating a balanced reaction (in this case, where the number of carbon and oxygen atoms are the same on both sides). To demonstrate, we first created the unbalanced reactions:
