Because the older cells will not be able to function properly without the new cells taking over them. :)
Start by balancing the hydrogen atoms. There are 9 on the reactants side and 2 on the products side. The least common multiple of 9 and 2 is 18, so the coefficient for C5H9O should be 2 and the coefficient for H2O should be 9.
Next, balance the carbon atoms. After giving C5H9O a coefficient of 2, there are 2*5, or 10 carbon atoms on the reactants side. There is only 1 carbon on the products side. The least common multiple of 1 and 10 is 10, so the coefficient of C5H9O remains as 2 and the coefficient for CO2 becomes 10.
Lastly, balance the oxygen atoms. With C5H9O having a coefficient of 2, there are 4 oxygen atoms on the reactants side. With CO2 having a coefficient of 10 and H2O having a coefficient of 9, there are 29 oxygen atoms on the products side. Here, you balance by changing only the coefficient of O2, which currently provides 2 oxygen atoms to the reactants side. 2 of the 29 oxygen atoms are covered by C5H9O, so the O2 needs to cover for the other 27. Every mole of O2 has 2 oxygen atoms, so the coefficient should be 27/2, or 13.5. We don't want decimals in the reaction, so multiply all of the coefficients by two. This gives the balance reaction:
4C5H9O + 27O2 --> 20CO2 + 18H2O
The specific heat capacity of sand is much less than water because of which sands require less energy to cool down and similarly less energy to be heated... because of this it feels like sands absrob heat faster than water
