Write the balanced equation for the combustion of isooctane (C8H18) to produce carbon dioxide and water. Use the smallest possible integers to balance the equation. Also, separate the sign with 1 space and enter the reaction arrow as hyphen greater than sign: ->

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isooctane is written below.

Explanation:

Combustion reaction is defined as the reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isooctane follows:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of isooctane reacts with 8 moles of oxygen gas to produce 4 moles of carbon dioxide and 8 moles of water molecule.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of isooctane is written above.
