<h2>Answer with Explanation</h2>

The positively charged particles in the nucleus pull the negatively charged electrons. When we move from left to right, the number of protons increases then more protons attract negative charges, so electronegativity increases. This happens due to a greater charge on the nucleus which makes electron bonding pairs to be very attracted to atoms located more right on the periodic table. Fluorine is the most electronegative element which is present in seventh group known as halogen group.

Hydrocarbons, compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen, are important in fuels.The heat of combustion of cyclopentane, C5H1

shtirl [24]

Answer : The balanced equation for the complete combustion of cyclopentane will be :

$2C_5H_{10}+15O_2\rightarrow 10CO_2+10H_2O$

Explanation :

As we know that the hydrocarbons can undergo complete or incomplete combustion that depends on the amount of oxygen available.

Complete combustion : It takes place when there is a good supply of oxygen. In this, hydrocarbon react with the oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water as a product.

The general reaction will be :

$\text{Hydrocarbon}+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

Incomplete combustion : It takes place when there is a poor supply of oxygen. In this, hydrocarbon react with the oxygen to give carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water as a product.

The general reaction will be :

$\text{Hydrocarbon}+O_2\text{(limited)}\rightarrow CO+CO_2+H_2O$

As per question, the complete combustion of cyclopentane react with oxygen to gives carbon dioxide and water as a product.

Therefore, the balanced chemical reaction will be :

$2C_5H_{10}+15O_2\rightarrow 10CO_2+10H_2O$
