- A combustion reaction involves the reaction of a substance with oxygen gas. The complete combustion of any hydrocarbon (binary compound of carbon and hydrogen) produces carbon dioxide and water as the only products. Octane is a hydrocarbon that is found in gasoline. Complete combustion of octane produces 8 L of carbon dioxide for every 9 L of water vapor (both measured at the same temperature and pressure). What is the ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of octane?arrow_forwardWrite the symbol of each atom using the ZAX format. a. b. c.arrow_forwardAre most elements found in nature in the elemental or the combined form? Why? Name several elements that are usually found in the elemental form.arrow_forward
