Wood is made mostly of cellulose and has a chemical formula of C6H1005. Which of the following equations represents the cellulose combustion reaction?

Answer below

Explanation:

First to show combustion, you use O₂.

So   C₆H₁₀O₅ +  O₂ is the reaction.  Assuming complete combustion, all you get as products are CO₂ and H₂O.  Then you have to balance the full reaction.

C₆H₁₀O₅  +  6O₂  >  6CO₂  +  5H₂O

6 Carbons on each side

10 Hydrogens on each side

17 Oxygens on each side

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
