The combustion reaction between propane and oxygen is
C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O. The key in the balancing of chemical reaction is to
make sure that you got the exact chemical formula of the substance that is
reacting and the yielded product. After getting the formula, identify first the
hardest element/atom to be balanced such as Na, Zn, Cl, etc. Then proceed to
the easier ones such as O, H. Make sure to not the atoms present in the
molecule of the substance.

Answer:

\(\huge \boxed{\mathrm{C_3 H_8 +5O_2 \Rightarrow 3CO_2 +4 H_2 O}}\)

\(\rule[225]{225}{2}\)

Explanation:

\(\sf C_3 H_8 +O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 + H_2 O\)

Balancing Carbon atoms on the right side,

\(\sf C_3 H_8 +O_2 \Rightarrow 3CO_2 + H_2 O\)

Balancing Hydrogen atoms on the right side,

\(\sf C_3 H_8 +O_2 \Rightarrow 3CO_2 +4 H_2 O\)

Balancing Oxygen atoms on the left side,

\(\sf C_3 H_8 +5O_2 \Rightarrow 3CO_2 +4 H_2 O\)

\(\rule[225]{225}{2}\)
