Makayla · Answer 1

The sum of the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation for combustion of acetone C3H6O in air is 11

explanation

write a balanced chemical equation for reaction

that is; C3H6O + 4O2 → 3CO2 + 3H2O

coefficient is the number in front of the chemical formula

the sum of coefficient is therefore = 1 (in front of C3H6O) + 4 (in front of O2) + 3 (in front of CO2) + 3 (in front of H2O) = 11
