Question

For the unbalanced equation, what is the coefficient for c5h10 ?

Answer 1

The answer is the coefficient is "1".
C₅H₁₀, now you see that there is no number with this and when there is no number or digit, it means the coefficient is one.
we use the coefficients to balance the equation of the reaction in such a way that number of the atoms of the elements in the reactants are equal to the number of atoms of different elements in the product, so that both sides are equal and balanced.
