there are many combustion equations. the equation will look like this: x moles of "the gas" are combusted with x moles of oxygen gas to yield x moles of dihydrogen monoxide and x moles of carbon dioxide.
example: two moles of butane(C2H6) combust with four moles of oxygen gas(02) yield two moles of dihydroggen monoxide(water: h20) and two moles of carbon dioxide(CO2)
hmm well i don't really think that answers the question very well so whoever wrote this may need to add some thing to it or reword it for it to be easier to understand.
Try this instead.......
Combustion of a fuel (such as methane)
Lots of oxygen present
Methane + oxygen -----------> Carbon dioxide + water
Some oxygen present
Methane + oxygen -----------> Carbon monoxide + water
Little oxygen present
Methane + oxygen ------------> Carbon (soot) + water
I also agree that the first paragraph is a little vague and I would just like to say that the term Dihydrogen Monoxide was a hoax and is not the actual term for water. If you want to use the IUPAC name you can: Oxidane
IUPAC: International Union of pure and applied chemistry
It depends what fuel you're burning.
For ethane, one of the simplest hydrocarbon fuels, the equation is:
ethane + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water
Because 2 C2H6 + 7 O2 --> 4 CO2 + 6 H2O
See related link. Fuel + Air -----> Heat + Water + Carbon Dioxide + Nitrogen + other products In cars, carbon monoxide is also generated. Some sulfur dioxide might also be produced in plants that generate power.
The carbon, when mixed with oxygen will make carbon dioxide.
C + O2 = CO2

A chemical equation is defined as the short-hand representation of a true chemical reaction with the help of symbols and formula.the word and balanced chemical equation for combustion of methane is given as .methane + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energyCH4(g) + 2O2(g) CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)
For complete combustion, the equation is C6H12 + 12 O2 = 6 CO2 + 6 H2O.
helium is chemically inert and doesn't undergo combustion reaction
CO
i have no idea mate
combustion
C+ o2 = co2
appropriate chemical equation for the combustion of candle?
it is a combustion. the word equation would be: sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide the balanced chemical equation: S(s) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g)
hydrocarbon + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water
HYDROCARBON + OXYGENÜ CARBON DIOXIDE + WATER
Fuel+oxygen --> carbon dioxide+water
S + o2 = so2

A combustion reaction is a reaction that burns. The equation that represents a combustion reaction is CH4 + 2O2 reacts to yield CO2 + 2H2O.
For complete combustion, the equation is C6H12 + 12 O2 = 6 CO2 + 6 H2O.
