Question

Propane, C₂H, is the fuel used with barbeque grills. When propane reacts with oxygen gas, the following is the unbalanced chemical equation:
_C₂H₂(g) +O₂ (g)_CO₂ (g) +H₂O (g)
If properly balanced, which of the following word equations correctly describes this chemical reaction?
A One molecule of propane gas and five molecules of molecular oxygen undergo a combustion reaction forming three molecules of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water.
B One molecule of propane and four molecules of molecular oxygen combust, forming one molecule of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water.
C One molecule of propane gas reacts with two molecules of oxygen gas in a double replacement reaction to form one molecule of carbon monoxide and two molecules of water.
D Two molecules of propane gas react with 3 molecules of molecular oxygen to form one molecule of carbon dioxide and four molecules of water.
