C3H8=5(02+3.76N2)=3C02+4H20+18.8N2...{phi*C3H8=5(02+3.76N2=3phi*C02+4H20+5*(1-phi)02+18
Are you sure your not looking for the chemically correct complete combustion??

How many atoms are In 2.12 mol of propane (C3H8)? Remember, 1 mol C3H8=6.02 x 1023 molecules of C3H8...

C3H8 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O

easiest way to balance is to either have half O2 or double it, but i'm not doing your homework for you
fyi this belongs in the chemistry subsection
