Ethane can be used as a fuel. Which equation represents the complete combustion of ethane?

  • A$2\text{C}_2\text{H}_6 + 7\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 4\text{CO}_2 + 6\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • B$2\text{C}_2\text{H}_6 + 5\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 4\text{CO} + 6\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • C$\text{C}_2\text{H}_4 + 3\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2\text{CO}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}$
  • D$\text{C}_2\text{H}_4 + 2\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2\text{CO} + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}$
