    C3H8 + 5O2 = > 3CO2 + 4H2O

    Explanation:

    Hydrocarbon combustion is the reaction between a hydrocarbon and O2 producing CO2 and water.

    C3H8 + O2 = > CO2 + H2O

    First we balance the C and H.

    C3H8 + O2 = > 3CO2 + 4H2O

    Now we balance O for the answer!

    C3H8 + 5O2 = > 3CO2 + 4H2O
