Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Type of Reaction

First, we need to identify the type of reaction given by the equation: \[ 2 \mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{10} + 13 \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow 8 \mathrm{CO}_{2} + 10 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \]

Step 2: Analyze the Reactants and Products

The reactants are butane (\(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{10}\)) and oxygen (\(\mathrm{O}_{2}\)). The products are carbon dioxide (\(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\)) and water (\(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)).

Step 3: Determine the Reaction Type

This reaction involves a hydrocarbon (butane) reacting with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. This is a typical combustion reaction, which is a subset of redox reactions because it involves the transfer of electrons (oxidation of carbon and reduction of oxygen).

Final Answer

The answer is \(\boxed{\text{redox}}\).

HW Score: 97.6%, 9.75 of 10 points Points: 0.75 of 1 The graph shows the projections in total enrollment at degree granting institutions from Fall 2003 to Fall 2012. The linear model, y=2145x+15.59, provides the approximate enrollment, in millions, between the years 2003 and 2012, where x=0 corresponds to 2003, x=1 to 2004, and so on, and y is in millions of students. (a) Use the model to determine projected enrollment for Fall 2008. The projected enrollment for Fall 2008 is millions. (Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest tenth as needed.)
