(a)
Interpretation:
The balanced equation for the combustion reaction of the compound
Concept Introduction:
Combustion reaction – it is a process of burning and most of the combustion involves reaction with oxygen. The products of the combustion of organic compounds that contain only carbon, hydrogen and hydrogen are always carbon dioxide and water.
