Balance the following and label what type of reaction is taking place: c5h9o + o2? co2 + h2o

Balanced chemical reaction:

4C₅H₉O + 27O₂ → 20CO₂ + 18H₂O.

According to principle of mass conservation, number of atoms must be equal on both side of chemical reaction.

Type of reaction is combustion.

Combustion is reaction with oxygen.

Organic compound reacts with oxygen and produce carbon dioxide and water.

"you start with 15.67 g mgco3-xh2o, when heated and all the water is removed, you are left with 7.58 g mgco3 only.

therefore, you had 15.67 - 7.58 = 8.09g h2o  

moles of each :

7.58g mgco3 = ? moles = 7.58g / 83.4g/mole = 0.09moles  

8 09g h2o = ? moles = 8.09g / 18g/mole = 0.44moles  

molar ratio between the two by dividing both numbers by the smallest number :

0.09 / 0.09 = 1  

0.44 / 0.09 = 4.8  

mgco3-5h2o"

a polar bond is formed when electrons are shared unevenly between atoms
