Answer #1

2 C28H56O7 + 77 O2 = 0 CO + 56 H2CO3

To balance any reaction, the number of atoms present on the reactant side and the products side should match (that means they should present in exact same number).

For the above reaction, the formation of CO is not observed to balance the reaction. Hence the correct coefficient for CO will be zero.
