Chapter 5, Problem 5.30AP
When organic compounds are burned, they react with oxygen to form CO2 and H2O. Write balanced equations for the combustion reactions involving the following compounds. (Hint: When balancing combustion reactions, begin by balancing the C and H atoms first, and balance the O atoms last).
(a) C4H10 (butane, used in lighters)
(b) C2H6O (ethyl alcohol, used in gasohol and as race car fuel)
(c) C8H18 (octane, a component of gasoline)

- Hydrocarbons with 5 carbons (pentane) and 19 carbons (nonadecane) are liquids at room temperature. The molecules with 8, 9, and 10-carbons are "octane", "nonane", and "decane" and are common components of gasoline. The image below shows chemical equations for the combustion of the simplest hydrocarbon methane, 3-carbon propane, and 10-carbon decane. As you can see, the products are always carbon dioxide and water, just in larger amounts for larger hydrocarbons.
