Because the numbers of aluminum and oxygen atoms are not the same on both sides of the equation, so the equation is not balanced. In order to be balanced, the numbers of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides of the equation. The correct equation is 4Al + 3O2 --> 2Al2O3. This gives 4 aluminum atoms and 6 oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation, so it is balanced.
Unbalanced CH4 + O2 = H2O + CO2 Balanced CH4 + 2O2 = 2H20 + CO2
NH4NO3 (aq) N2O (g) + 2H2O (l)
2h2 plus 2O2 ---h2o + 483.6 kj
The general equation for complete combustion of nh4no3 is actually the equation for the thermal decomposition of ammonium nitrate. It is: 2NH4NO3 ---> 2N2(g) + 4H2O(l)+ O2(g).
The balanced equation for the combustion of methanol is: CH3OH (l)+ 3/2O2(g) -> CO2 (g)+ 2H2O(g) ... CH30H + 1.502 -> CO2 + 2H20
Make sure atoms on both sides are equal.Balanced equation as follows. CH4+2O2---->CO2+2H2O
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O
Ch4+2o2--->co2+2h2o+heat
Natural gas is chemically known as methane, or CH4. The reaction of burning it produces the following chemical equation: CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O.
Ch4+ 2o2 ---> 2h2o + co2
Assuming complete combustion: CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2.
2O2 in a chemical reaction equation means that there are two moles of O2, or oxygen, molecules.
CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O.
Hydrogen combines with oxygen at the completion of a combustion reaction to form water. The following is the balanced equation for the combustion of methane (CH4). CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
ch4 + 2o2 → co2 + 2h2o
ch4 + 2o2 → co2 + 2h2o
Ch4 + 2o2 => co2 + 2h2o
