Chapter 4, Problem 4.19P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A balanced equation for the complete combustion of liquid ${\text{C}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}\text{SH}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Combustion is when the substance that contains hydrogen and carbon are burned in the presence of oxygen to form the products water and carbon dioxide. In general, the equation for the complete combustion is as follows,

$\text{Hydrocarbon}+\text{Oxygen}\to \text{Water}+\text{Carbon}\text{dioxide}$

To determine: A balanced equation for the complete combustion of liquid ${\text{C}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}\text{SH}$ .
