Develop a reaction equation for the combustion of


1. Develop a reaction equation for the combustion of polyethylene, [CH2CH2]n, in 100.% theoretical air.

2. A simple alcohol can be obtained from a hydrocarbon by replacing one of the hydrogen atoms by a hydroxyl group (OH). Develop a reaction equation for the combustion of a generalized alcohol of this type, CnH2n+1(OH), in 100.% theoretical air and test it out with

a. Methyl alcohol (also known as methanol or wood alcohol), CH3(OH).

b. Ethyl alcohol (also known as ethanol or grain alcohol), C2H5(Oh).

c. Isopropyl alcohol, C3H7(OH).
