Alkanes — practice question

Which equation shows the incomplete combustion of propane, $\text{C}_3\text{H}_8$?

  • A$2\text{C}_3\text{H}_8 + 7\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 6\text{CO} + 8\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • B$\text{C}_3\text{H}_8 + 5\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 3\text{CO}_2 + 4\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • C$2\text{C}_3\text{H}_8 + 11\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 6\text{CO}_2 + 16\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • D$\text{C}_3\text{H}_8 + 7\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 3\text{CO}_2 + 8\text{H}_2\text{O}$
