can you help me please

For each of the compounds listed below, your assignment is to
the following (you'll be submitting a PDF of your work as part of
the Post-Lab Assignment):
1. Write the balanced chemical equation for creating the compound from CO2(g) and H20(1).
2. Write the balanced chemical equation for combustion of the compound in the presence of O2(g).
3. Calculate the enthalpy of combustion using thermodynamic values provided in the table below. You do not need to calculate
the energy required to create the compound from CO2 and H20.
4. Use the enthalpy of combustion to calculate the energy value.
Propane (C3H8), used for heating and cooking
Pentane (C5H12), a primary component in "white gas" or Coleman fuel
Ethanol (C2H5OH), a gasoline additive and alternative fuel
Oleic acid (C18H3402), a primary component in vegetable oil and closely related to compounds found in biodiesel
Cetane (C16H34), a primary component of diesel fuel
