Answer:
I am not a man or boy, I am a girl so therefore I could answer this question before November ends Imao, have a great rest of your day.
Explanation:
Answer:
carbon dioxide and water
Explanation:
Example: Combustion of Methane (CH₄(g))
CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) => CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)**
____________________
Note: The combustion of any hydrocarbon produces CO₂ & H₂O. That is,
Ethane (C₂H₆) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)
Propane (C₃H₈) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)
Butane (C₄H₁₀) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)
The issue remaining is to balance the reaction equation. For these type equation balance Carbon 1st, then Hydrogen and finish with Oxygen. Balancing in this order leaves Oxygen which can be balanced using fractions. If problem requires lowest whole number ratios of elements, simply multiply entire equation by 2 to get standard equation*

*Standard Equation is defined as the smallest whole number ratios of elements. The 'standard equation' is significant in that it is assumed to be at STP conditions; i.e., 0⁰C (=273K) & 1.0 Atmosphere pressure.
- Ethane (C₂H₆) + 7/2O₂(g) => 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)
=> 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn
- Propane (C₃H₈) + 5O₂(g) => 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn (no need to balance with the '2' multiple)
- Butane (C₄H₁₀) + 13/2O₂ => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)
=> 2C₃H₈ + 13O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn

**Also, note that water, H₂O(g), is listed as a gas. In some cases it will be listed as a liquid, H₂O(l).
