This is an ''example'' of a complete combustion reaction, but it isn't the general definition of one. I left all my chemistry books in a storage unit at school; can anyone else provide a better definition? Otherwise I'll have one in a month or so...

If you say '''oxygen''' you have to use "'''O'''". Your explanation if good for me, but is better to explain that in the article, "Main" page, not disscusion page.  OK? --[[User:Joaquín Martínez]], [[User talk:Joaquín Martínez|talk]] 14:55, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

:Why do you ''have'' to use O instead of the correct O<sub>2</sub>? A reaction between O and C<sub>x</sub>H<sub>y</sub> is ''not the same in any way'' as a reaction between O<sub>2</sub> and C<sub>x</sub>H<sub>y</sub>. I'm a 4th year chemical engineering student (plus I had 2 years of chemistry in high school) and I have never seen atomic oxygen written as O, unless we were discussing radical reactions. Also, on this article I had made other changes, but you reverted those along with my O<sub>2</sub>. Those were just clarity changes, I don't see why those had to be changed.

:The only reason I explained this on your talk page is because you made the same mistake on two pages, and I thought it would be better to explain it once. [[User:Jazzman831|Jazzman831]] 15:27, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

::Rollback problems are fixed. You may explain in the article the diferences between O and O2. All of us will learn about it with your help.

::You may explain there: "A reaction between O and CxHy is not the same in any way as a reaction between O2 and CxHy"

::That is fine for me.

::But if you say oxygen you have to use "O". That do not change if it is in the middle of a reaction or not.

::Please answer me to my Talk page. Working in other matters, that is the best way for me. Thank you so much. --User:Joaquín Martínez, talk 19:31, 21 July 2007 (EDT)
