how do chemistry equations symbol balancing?

NH4Cl + FeSO4F + BaCO3 ---> H3O + FeCO3F + Fe(No3)3 + BaCl2 + BaS

I found this impossible to solve can someone show me how or tell me whether this is actually possible because I have got no ideas as to the solving of this equation I'm simply stumped. I wont show my previous attempts so that you guys can have a clean start.

    As it stands it cannot be balanced.

    The first trouble is that there are no such things as FeSO4F, FeCO3F , Fe(No3)3, or H3O.  (Which puts the element No on the right, but there is no No on the left.)

    But even when you correct those to FeSO4, FeCO3 , Fe(NO3)3, and H2O it still cannot be balanced.  It doesn't even look like a real chemical equation -- there are too many species on each side.
