Chemical equations particulate interpretation

Chemical equations can be interpreted on either a particulate level (atoms, molecules, ions) or a mole level (moles of reactants and products). Write word statements to describe the combustion of butane on a particulate level and a mole level. 

The molar interpretation of a chemical equation involves reading the coefficients as the number of moles of the reactants and products. This is still a particulate-level explanation, but we are grouping the particles into counting units that make it easier to translate into a macroscopic-level interpretation. On the molar level, fractional coefficients are acceptable. H2(g) + V2 02(g) H20(g) can be read as one mole of... 

In Section 8.4 we introduced the three levels on which a chemical equation may be interpreted particulate, molar, and macroscopic. Let s briefly review the particulate and molar interpretations of an equation. Consider the equation...
