Answer:
When you dry clothes in the dryer, different fabrics rub together, and electrons from a cotton sock (for instance) may rub off onto a polyester shirt. That's why clothes sometimes stick together and make sparks when you pull them apart.
Explanation:
This atom is on the almost extreme right of the 2nd period of the periodic table (except for the stable element on the extreme right). This means it has the highest mass number of the unstable elements of the period. It thus attracts its electron clouds more strongly that the elements to the left of the period . This means it can gain an atom easily ( this is what is called electronegativity – tendency to attract an electron) than is can lose an electron. In addition, it only needs to acquire one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration (8) in its valence shell.
Due to these, it is hard for the atoms to lose an electron which is why it has a high ionization energy- the energy required to lose an electron.

Answer:
The answer to your question is
4C₇H₁₇ + 45 O₂ ⇒ 28 CO₂ + 34H₂O
Explanation:
Write the equation
C₇H₁₇ + O₂ ⇒ CO₂ + H₂O
Process
1.- Check if the equation is balanced
Reactants Element Products
7 C 1
17 H 2
2 O 3
As the number of reactants and products is different, we conclude that the reaction is unbalanced.
2.- Write a coefficient "7" to CO₂ and a coefficient of 17/2 to H₂O
C₇H₁₇ + O₂ ⇒ 7CO₂ + H₂O
Reactants Element Products
7 C 7
17 H 17
2 O 51/2
3.- Write a coefficient of 45/2 to the O₂, and multiply all the equation by 2.
4C₇H₁₇ + 45 O₂ ⇒ 28 CO₂ + 34H₂O
Reactants Element Products
28 C 28
68 H 68
90 O 90
I believe that the chemical formula for an acid often begins with H, which means C is your answer.
