Expert Solution
Step 1

We know that, In a chemical reaction Number of atoms of each element are remain same both side. 

Simply atom can not produced or can not be destroyed, so this thought useful to balance a chemical reaction.

Given reaction is 

C5H11OH + O2 → H2O + CO2

In the above reaction, three elements are present (C, H, and O).
