Question
The combustion reaction of isopropyl alcohol is:

\[ \text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}(l) + \frac{9}{2} \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 3 \text{CO}_2(g) + 4 \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \]

This equation represents the chemical reaction where isopropyl alcohol (C₃H₇OH) reacts with oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). The reaction is balanced, showing the conservation of mass, where three molecules of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water are produced. This type of reaction is exothermic, releasing energy in the form of heat.
