What are the products to #C_2H_6(g) + O_2(g)#?

Answer 1

#"Carbon dioxide and water...."#

Under conditions of complete combustion, hydrocarbons react with dioxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Chemical reactions ABSOLUTELY conserve mass and charge.

And thus...

#underbrace(C_2H_6(g) + 7/2O_2(g) rarr CO_2(g) + 3H_2O(l)+Delta)_"98 g of REACTANTS gives 98 g of PRODUCT"#

What does #Delta# mean in the context?

The products of the reaction between C₂H₆(g) and O₂(g) are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
