☆☆☆☆☆Chemical Equation
This equation represents an elementary example of a synthesis type reaction. The formula for this reaction is A + B = AB, where A & B are reactants and AB is the product.
Fermentation produces alcohol and carbon dioxide. Burning the alcohol produces more carbon dioxide.
Alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol etc can have hydrogen bonds.
C + O2 = CO2 (an oxydation reaction)
Examples are: ethanol, methanol, butanol, propanol, xylitol, etc.
C8h8
The equation with proper punctuation is A(s) + B(l) = C(g) + D(aq)
where the chemicals (elements or compounds) are identified as follows:
A and B are reactants - A is a (s)olid, and B is a (l)iquid.
C and D are products - C is a (g)as and D is an (aq)ueous solution (in water)
Hydrocarbon and fuel
When the number of atoms of each individual element is equal on both sides of the arrow
Carbon Dioxide (C2O), Water (H2O), and Heat Energy
