Question

Balance the following chemical equation and identify the reactants and products C5H12 (l) + O2 (g)→H2O (g) + CO2 (g)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

hi

2C5H12 (l) + 16O2 (g)→12H2O (g) + 10CO2 (g)

Answer 2

BALANCED CHEMICAL EQUATION

$\large \leadsto \bf \orange{C_5H_{12} \cal{(l) }+ \bf 8 O_2 \cal(g) → \bf 5 CO_2 \cal(g) + \bf 6 H_2O \cal(l)}$

• This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction.
• $\sf \: C_5H_{12} \: is \: a \: reducing \: agent, \: O_2 \: is \: an \: oxidizing \: agent.$

$\sf \: Reactants \\ \bf \red{ C_5H_{12} \: – \: Pentane } \\ \bf \: \gray{O_2 \: — \: Dioxygen}$

$\sf \: Product \\ \bf \gray{ CO_2 \: - \: Carbon \: \: dioxide } \\ \bf \blue{H_2O \: – \: Water}$
