Explanation:

Complete question

Write a balanced chemical equation to represent the combustion of CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3

Solution

The given compound is pentane

C5H12

The empirical equation representing combustion of pentane is

C5H12 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O

We will first balance the carbon atoms

C5H12 + O2 --> 5CO2 + H2O

Now we will balance the Hydrogen molecule

C5H12 + O2 --> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now we will balance the oxygen molecule

C5H12 + 8O2 --> 5CO2 + 6H2O
