Question

write the reactants and products when butane is combusted with oxygen and write the balanced chemical equation.calculate how many carbon di oxide molecules are there in the evolved gas in this reaction?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Butane + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide +Water

2 C 4 H10 ( g ) + 13 O 2 ( g )  →  8 CO 2 ( g ) + 10 H 2 O(g)

Explanation:

The chemical formula of butane is  

C 4 H 10

. The combustion of butane is a reaction between butane and oxygen gas that produces carbon dioxide gas and water.

∴  2 C 4 H 10 ( g ) + 13 O 2 ( g )  →  8 CO 2 ( g ) + 10 H 2 O(g
