Answer:

Option g. (9)

Explanation:

Let's think the equation. In a combustion, the oxygen is the reactant and the products are COâ‚‚ and water. So the reaction must be:

C₉H₈O₄  +  O₂  →  CO₂  +  H₂O

If balance the equation would find out that the coefficient of oxygen is 9  .

C₉H₈O₄  +  9O₂  →  9CO₂  +  4H₂O
