$C_{12} H_{22} O_{11} (s) + \frac{35}{2} O_{2} (g) \to 12 C O_{2} (g) ↑ ⏐ ⏐ ⏐ + 11 H_{2} O (l)$ $C_12H_22O_11(s) +35/2O_2(g) rarr 12CO_2(g)uarr + 11H_2O(l)$

Explanation:

Is this equation balanced? I might have made an error! How would you know? Supposing 1 equiv of carbon in the sucrose was oxidized to $C$ $C$ . How would I represent that?
