1 answer

The reaction given is the combustion of naphthalene (C10H8) in the presence of oxygen (O2). When organic compounds like naphthalene combust completely, they typically produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

Given the balanced equation:

C10H8 + 12O2 → 10CO2 + 4H2O

The correct products expected from the reaction are:

10CO2 + 4H2O

So, the final answer is 10CO2 + 4H2O.
