The following chemical equation shows the combustion of ethane. Balance the equation by filling in the coefficients.

Sagot :

Answer:

2 C2H6 + 4 O2 → 2 C + 2 CO2 + 6 H2O

Explanation:

2 C2H6 + 4 O2 →  2 CO2 + 6 H2O is the balance equation for the combustion of ethane. In the question, the equation for combustion of methane is unbalanced i. e. C2H6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O so by putting coefficient 2 in front of ethane, 4 in front of oxygen, 2 in front of carbondioxide and 6 in front of  water which can balance the unbalanced equation for combustion of ethane
