Balanced Chemical Equation – Solution
2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O
The coefficients show the number of particles (atoms or molecules), and the indices show the number of atoms that make up the molecule. New substances are formed as a result of the rearrangement of the original atoms. As a result of a chemical reaction, atoms of chemical elements do not disappear anywhere and new ones do not appear, their number remains unchanged – this follows from the law of conservation of mass of substances.
Chemical Reaction Information
Butane + Dioxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water
This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction. C4H10 is a reducing agent, O2 is an oxidizing agent.
- 8 C-5/2 – 52 e– → 8 CIV (oxidation)
- 26 O0 + 52 e– → 26 O-II (reduction)
Reaction Type
Combustion
Substances that react are called starting materials or reactants. The substances that form as a result are called reaction products.
