    Impossible to balance

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There is an infinite number of solutions, because the equation is a combination of two simpler ones.

    One reaction forms C, and the other forms CO₂.

    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ ⟶ 12 C + 11 H₂O

    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 24H₂SO₄⟶ 12CO₂ + 35H₂O + 24SO₂

    You can add the two equations in an infinite number of linear combinations, so there is no unique solution.
