Make sure each side has a stoichiometric equivalent of atoms, due to the conservation of mass and energy!
Moreover, we need to correct your mistake: this reaction wouldn't practically occur. A combustion reaction would be more common.
Hence,
is the correct, balanced equation for the combustion of hexane (or whatever molecule you want to call it).
