Propane gas (C3H8) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide gas (CO2) and water vapor (H2O).
Write a balanced equation for this reaction.
Assuming that all volume measurements occur at the same temperature and pressure, how many liters of oxygen will be required to completely burn 0.700 L of propane gas?
Assuming that all volume measurements occur at the same temperature and pressure, how many liters of carbon dioxide gas will be produced in the reaction?
Assuming that all volume measurements occur at the same temperature and pressure, how many liters of water vapor will be produced in the reaction

The point of this problem is to illustrate that when all are gases one may use a shortcut in which L is used as if L were mols. So using the coefficients in the balanced equation to convert L of one substance to L of any other. I assume you can balance the equation.
