    The answer to your question is: 3-pentanone produces the greatest amount of carbon dioxide

    Explanation:

    a) Ethanal

    2C₂H₁₀O + 5O₂ ⇒ 4CO₂ + 4H₂O

    2 moles of ethanal produces 4 moles of carbon dioxide

    b) 3-Pentanone

    C₅H₁₀O + 7O₂ ⇒ 5CO₂ + 5H₂O

    2 moles of 3-pentanone produces 10 moles of carbon dioxide

    c) 2-Butanone

    2C₄H₈O + 11O₂ ⇒ 8CO₂ + 8H₂O

    2 moles of 2-butanone produce 8 moles of carbon dioxide
