Combustion reaction for ethane is 2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+6H_2O

Explanation:

Combustion reaction is defined as the reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water molecule.

\text{Hydrocarbon}+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

Taking ethane as the hydrocarbon.

The chemical equation for the combustion of ethane follows:

2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+6H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of ethane reacts with 7 moles of oxygen gas to produce 4 moles of carbon dioxide gas and 6 moles of water molecule
