Hexane, C6H14(I), undergoes combustion, as represented by the following equation. 2c6h14(i) + 19o29(g) ---> 12co2(g) + 14h2o(g) H+-7709.8kJ

Accepted Answer

The equation you provided represents the combustion of hexane (C6H14) with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The enthalpy change (ΔH) for this reaction is -7709.8 kJ, indicating that the reaction is exothermic and releases heat to the surroundings. This is consistent with the fact that combustion reactions are generally highly exothermic.
