Question

What else is produced during the combustion of butane, C4H10?

Answer 1

Answer:

is C. CO2

Explanation:

Answer 2

Another product: CO₂

Further explanation

Given

Reaction

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂⇒ 8__+ 10H₂O

Required

product compound

Solution

In the combustion of hydrocarbons there can be 2 kinds of products

If there is excess Oxygen, you will get Carbon dioxide(CO₂) and water in the product

If Oxygen is low, you'll get Carbon monoxide(CO) and water

Or in other ways, we can use the principle of the law of conservation of mass which is also related to the number of atoms in the reactants and in the products

if we look at the reaction above, there are C atoms on the left (reactants), so that in the product there will also be C atoms with the same number of C atoms on the left

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂⇒ 8CO₂+ 10H₂O
