Question

C2H5OH(g) + 302(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g) + heat
reaction type

Answer 1

Combustion

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction type is a combustion reaction;

Ethanol + oxygen gas → carbon dioxide + water

Now;

Ethanol is the fuel and oxygen gas rapidly combines with it to form carbon dioxide and water.

• This process releases heat energy from chemical bonds.
• Most hydrocarbons burn in excess air or oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.
