Is this chemical equation balanced? Why or why not? Choose the BEST answer.

• Yes, the amount of atoms for each element are equal on both the reactant and product side.

• No, the carbons are not the same number on both the reactant and product side.

• No, neither the carbons or hydrogens are the same amount on both the reactant and product side.

• No, none of the elements (carbon, hydrogen, or oxygen) are the same amount on both the reactant and product side.
