the answer is D.
The correct molecular formula for C7H16 is heptane, which is a straight-chain alkane hydrocarbon with seven carbon atoms and sixteen hydrogen atoms.

The balanced formula for the combustion of dimethylpentane (C7H16) is: C7H16 + 11O2 -> 7CO2 + 8H2O.
Both C7H16 and CaCO3 have a molar mass of approximately 116 grams per mole.
The balanced equation for the combustion of heptane (C7H16) with oxygen (O2) is: C7H16 + 11O2 → 7CO2 + 8H2O
2-ethylpropane is incorrect because the name does not follow the IUPAC rules for naming organic compounds. The correct name for the compound with the formula C7H16 would be 2-methylheptane.
