Answer:

isopropanol + oxygen Right arrow. carbon dioxide + water + heat

Explanation:

Word equation:

isopropanol + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + heat

Chemical equation:

2C₃H₇OH + 9O₂ → 6CO₂ + 8H₂O + Heat

The given reaction is combustion of isopropanol. Isopropanol burn in the presence of oxygen and produced carbon dioxide and water. Heat is also produced in this reaction.

The given reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass. There are equal number of moles of each element on both side of reaction equation thus mass remain conserved.
