Default Citric Acid

Hey guys!
I've been doing some research on citric acid, and i can't seem to find its balanced chemical equation any where :cry:. So far, i know that the formula for citric acid is C6H8O7. If anyone knows the chemical equaiton for it, can you please post it! :oops: thank you!

That most likely is the eqaution for citric acid, it does not necessarilly have to be balanced, like Sucrose (C12H22O11) or Glucose (C6H12O6), unless you are talking about something completely different...
