Every combustion process is exothermic (the release of heat and light) so the products have low energy as compare to reactants which are in this case Butane and oxygen.
* Reactants: the initial compounds in a chemical reaction. * Products: the final compounds in a chemical reaction. * Catalyst: a chemical compound which help the chemical reaction but not react with the other compounds.
Combustion involves many different reactants and produces many different products. There are endless numbers of things that can burn, and endless types of chemicals released when these things burn. Added: Generally, and what you will see in an academic setting, this; A hydrocarbon, or a carbohydrate with oxygen gas as the reactants. The products are always carbon dioxide and water. CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O An example of a common combustion reaction.
Unlike reactants, catalysts are not used up during a reaction. They merely speed up the reaction (or allow it to proceed).
The triangle seen in combustion reactions on top of the arrow separating the reactants from the products is the Greek letter delta which means heat is added.

reactants: an element and oxygen products: the oxide of the element
The burning of fossil fuels are a combustion reaction. The reaction for the combustion has the reactants of propane (C3H8) and oxygen (O2). The combustion reactions products are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

yes they have more energy

The basic equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + uv Energy (+Chlorophyl catalyst)-------> C6H1206 + 6O2 So, the reactants are Carbon Dioxide and water and the products glucose and oxygen.

A catalyst is a material which make possible a chemical reaction, improve the rate of reaction, increases the yield of the reaction; a catalyst doesn't react with reactants/products.
heat can be one of the products as in a combustion reaction and it can be used as a catalyst
The Mass of Products equals the Mass of the Reactants. "Nothing is created or destroyed - The Law of Conservation of Energy - Many reactions like fires (combustion) gases escape and thus the reactants appear to lose Mass. However, if all gases are collected and weighed the Mass of the Products will equal the mass of the Reactants
