Well, the minimum requirement is a stoichiometrically balanced equation......
Explanation:
For example......the combustion of hydrocarbons.....say methane...
A sample of methane was completely combusted to give
What mass of water resulted? What masses of methane and dioxygen gas were initially present? Can you solve this? And note that I am spoon-feeding you a bit here in that I provided an equation that was stoichiometrically balanced with respect to mass and charge.
