The equation is 2C4H10 + 13O2 --> 8CO2 + 10H2O This means that for each mole of butane there are 5 moles of water produced. We have 7.01 g of butane = 7.01/58 moles of butane = 0.12 moles. Thus we will get 5 x 0.12 moles of water, = 5 x 0.12 x 18 g of water = 10.88 g.
Butane + chlorine (in light)--> 2- chlorobutane (major) + 1-chlorobutane(minor)
no thats completely stupid. butane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water
The combustion of Butane (C4H10) with oxygen (02) produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The balanced and simplified this reaction is 2 butane + 13 water = 8 carbon dioxide and 10 water.
The formula is 2 x C2H5 = C4H10. :)
2 Butane + 13 Oxygen --> 8 Carbon Dioxide + 10 Water
The balanced equation for the reaction is 2 C4H10 + 13 O2 -> 8 CO2 + 10 H2O. This shows that 13 moles of diatomic oxygen are required to burn 2 moles of butane. By proportionality, (4.8/2)13 or 31.2 moles of oxygen are required to burn 4.8 moles of butane. This corresponds to 31.2(32) or 1.0 X 103 grams of oxygen.

The temperature, of course increase.

the reaction of butane with oxygen
butane
The combustion of Butane (C4H10) with oxygen (02) produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The balanced and simplified this reaction is 2 butane + 13 water = 8 carbon dioxide and 10 water.
The formula is 2 x C2H5 = C4H10. :)
2C4H10 + 13O2 ---------> 8CO2 + 10H2O This is a combustion reaction because carbon dioxide and water are products. This equation is balanced because on both sides there are 8 carbon atoms, 20 hydrogen atoms, and 26 oxygen atoms. Also these are the lowest possible coefficients (because there cannot be fractional coefficients). The trick to balancing this equation is to realize that the oxygen reactant is diatomic (so it starts out as O2).
Carbon dioxide contains carbon and oxygen. Water contains hydrogen and water. Therefore, to combine with oxygen to form CO2 and H2O, butane must contain carbon and hydrogen.
