Qual è l'equazione chimica per la combustione del butano?
Risposta:
Butane + oxygen #rarr# carbon dioxide + water
Spiegazione:
#C_4H_10(g) + 13/2O_2(g) rarr 4CO_2(g) + 5H_2O(g)#
Is the equation above balanced? How do you know? How would you remove the #13/2# coefficient for dioxygen?
The reaction above represents complete combustion. Suppose I wanted to model a reaction where some of the hydrocarbon were combusted to #CO#; how would you represent this?
