The result will be 1 m3 of CO2 and 2 m3 of H2O gas (and 2 m3 of O2 will be consumed).

This is determined by the stoichiometry of the balanced reaction:

CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O

Convert this mass of methane to moles. Then set up the balanced equation for the combustion of methane. It should be easy from there to see how many moles of carbon dioxide are produced and convert back to grams.

There is one carbon atom in one molecule.So one molecule of CO2 is produced.

How many moles of H2O are produced by the complete combustion of methane?

The complete combustion of any hydrocarbon, including methane, produces one water molecule for each two atoms of hydrogen in the hydrocarbon. The formula of methane is CH4; therefore, the complete combustion of one mole of methane produces two moles of H2O.


What are three examples of molecule?

Molecules are representative particles of a covalent (or molecular) compound. Examples: water, ammonia, methane, carbon dioxide, chlorine gas, sulfur dioxide.


How many molecules of oxygen are needed for the incomplete combustion of one molecule of methane?

Oxygen is NOT a PRODUCT (it is not produced) from the complete combustion of methane, it is a REACTANT (it is used in the reaction). The answer is therefore a mass of zero.


When methane is burnt does it produce more carbon dioxide than natural gas?

Methane is practically the same as natural gas. When 1 molecule of methane (CH4) is burnt in oxygen it produces 1 molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2) and two molecules of water (H2O). If the methane is NOT burnt it causes twenty times more damage as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. (So keep lighting those farts!)


Translate to a sentence ch4 plus 2o2-co2 plus 2h2o?

one methane molecule plus two oxygen (gas) molecules yields one carbon dioxide molecule plus 2 water molecules.


What is the Word equation for methane burning?

methane + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water 2 Methane molecules plus 4 Oxygen molecules gives 2 molecules of Carbon dioxide plus 4 Water molecules.


What molecule do greenhouses produce?

There are five main gases produced by greenhouses: water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone.


How are the products of combustion different when carbon is burnt rather than methane?

When carbon is burnt, Carbon Dioxide only is produced. When methane is burnt, both carbon dioxide and water are produced.


How does natural gas and oil affect water positively?

They only affect water in a negative way. CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O For methane there are two molecules of water produced for every molecule of carbon dioxide. Methane affects water since methane attracts microbes that consumes Oxygen. So the methane and microbe level rise and can create a situation where there is so little oxygen that hardly anything can survive.

Is it possible to have a negative carbon footprint?

There have been learned people who have asserted this is not possible. There have been others who assert that it is. I am one of the later. Please consider this: Suppose you build a generating plant that burns methane gas leaking from a landfill to produce electricity. It burns methane against atmospheric oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. For each molecule of methane used, there is one molecule of carbon dioxide produced. Each molecule of methane is 37 times as powerful as carbon dioxide as a global warming gas. Therefore, the burning of methane that would otherwise be released reduces global warming, giving the process a negative carbon footprint. In fairness, I should point out that for each molecule of methane, there will be two atoms of water, in addition to the carbon dioxide, in the output. Water vapor is also a greenhouse gas. But the water produced would can be condensed immediately without any environmental effect, so I am not considering it in the calculation.
