The balanced form of this equation is:

C3H8 + 5 O2 = 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

If you mean how you would read this, it would be:

Propane combined with oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water vapor.

2(C2H6) + 7(O2) = 4(CO2) + 6(H2O)

Let's go through this.

Any time you burn a hydrocarbon, with one exception, two things can happen:

The desired effect happens when you've got plenty of oxygen, in which case you get carbon dioxide plus water.

That doesn't happen all that often; the usual effect is the hydrogen, being the most reactive element, grabs as much oxygen as it wants. Then the carbon will take oxygen as it can get it, giving you a mixture of carbon black (pure carbon), carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. If you want carbon monoxide--it's an industrial chemical used to make many things--this is fine. Most of us don't want it. Carbon black is soot. Because of the nature of the carbon atom it will link into a pure carbon structure if it doesn't have another, more reactive element to hook up to.

The reason for all the ethane and oxygen molecules is, all chemical reactions have to balance.

Acetylene is the exception to the rule because it's got a two-stage combustion reaction. The first stage produces water vapor and carbon monoxide--never carbon dioxide. The heat of combustion ignites the carbon monoxide, which evolves to carbon dioxide with the addition of a little oxygen.
