Answer:-  The mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide is 1:4.

Explanations:- The given balanced equation for the combustion of butane is:

2C_4H_1_0+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

In this equation, the coefficient of butane is 2 and that of carbon dioxide is 8. For balanced equations, the coefficients are the numbers used to balance the equations and they are representing the moles of each species. So, the balanced equation has 2 moles of butane and 8 moles of carbon dioxide and so the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide is 2:8.

This could be simplified to 1:4.

Hence, the mole ratio of butane to carbon dioxide for the given balanced equation is 1:4.
