![**Balancing Chemical Equations in Basic Solutions**
**Exercise:**
Please balance the following reaction in a basic solution and answer the following questions.
\[ \text{NO}_2^- \, (\text{aq}) + \text{Al} \, (\text{s}) \rightarrow \text{NH}_4^+ \, (\text{aq}) + \text{AlO}_2^- \, (\text{aq}) \]
1. The coefficient for \(\text{Al}\) is:
[Input box for the answer]
2. The coefficient for \(\text{NH}_4^+\) is:
[Input box for the answer]
3. The coefficient for \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) is:
[Input box for the answer]
4. The coefficient for \(\text{OH}^-\) is:
[Input box for the answer]

**Instructions:**
- Balance the chemical equation by adjusting the coefficients in front of each compound.
- Ensure that the number of atoms for each element is equal on both sides of the equation.
- Remember to balance the equation specifically in a basic solution, which may involve adding \(\text{OH}^-\) and \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) as needed.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe4369c4a-e5c7-4ec3-83c4-3a0b28313bbf%2Ff301ff88-8626-4919-b767-1d409fc3639c%2Fvqhjud_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
