Expert Solution
Step 1

Propane reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the balanced chemical reaction is as follows:

C3H8 + 5O2   3CO2 + 4H2O

The stoichiometry of the balanced chemical reaction states that one molecule of propane reacts with five molecules of oxygen to form three molecules of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water.
