To balance the combustion equation for pentanediol (C5H12O2), you start with the unbalanced equation: C5H12O2 + O2 → CO2 + H2O. After balancing the carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, the balanced equation is: C5H12O2 + 6 O2 → 5 CO2 + 6 H2O. Therefore, the coefficient of O2 in the balanced equation is 6.
