Detailed Solution

Fe0+HNO3+5Fe+2(NO3)2+NH43NO2+H2O

(i)Fe0Fe+2(NO3)22

(ii)HNO3+5NH43NO38

To make increase in O.N.=decrease, multiply eqn.

(i) by 4 and add. Hence

4Fe+HNO34Fe(NO3)2+NH4NO3

To balance N atoms on the two sides, multiply HNO3  by 10. Hence

4Fe+10HNO34Fe(NO3)2+NH4NO3

To balance O-atoms, add 3H2O  on RHS. Hence

4Fe+10HNO3

                          4Fe(NO3)2+NH4NO3+3H2O

H atoms are automatically balanced.
