Question

2C2H6 + 7O2 ---> 4CO2 + 6H2O

Answer 1

This is the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of ethane (C2H6) in the presence of oxygen (O2), which results in the formation of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O) as the products. Two molecules of ethane react with seven molecules of oxygen to produce four molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water. This is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases energy in the form of heat and light.
