What is the combustion equation for Cyclohexane, Cylohexene, and Benzene?​

Sagot :

A combustion reaction of a hydro-carbon is governed by the reaction:

CxHy + (x + y/4) O2 = xCO2 + y/2 H2O

For Cyclo Hexene it is , x=6 and y=10, so the equation can be written as :

C6H10 + 8.5 O2 = 6 CO2 + 5 H2O ,

or 2C6H10 +17 O2 = 12 CO2 + 10 H2O .
