The chemical reaction is:
CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2
CO2 is the carbon dioxide.
Ch4 + 2o2 -> co2 + 2h2o This moron site does not allow capitalization of chemical formulas to be written properly, so all letters here are capitals.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between CH4 and O2 is as follows: CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O By comparing the moles of CH4 and O2 given, you can see that O2 is the limiting reactant because it will be completely consumed before all of the CH4 can react.
The chemical equation you provided is not balanced. The balanced equation for the reaction of CO2 and H2O to form C6H12O6 and O2 is 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2. This equation represents photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen in the presence of sunlight.
Molar mass:O2 32 g/molCH4 16 g/molReaction:CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2H2OCalculus1 mol CH4 with 2 moles O2Given: 24 g CH4 equals 24/16 = 1.5 mol CH4this will need 2 * 1.5 moles O2 = 3.0 mol O23.0 mol O2 equals 3.0 * 32 = 96 g O2
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O shows that 1 molecule of CH4 reacts with 2 molecules of O2 to produce 1 molecule of CO2 and 2 molecules of H2O. This equation ensures that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the reaction arrow.
Ch4 + 2o2 -> co2 + 2h2o This moron site does not allow capitalization of chemical formulas to be written properly, so all letters here are capitals.
CH4+O2 --- CO2+H2O... All that's missing - is the number 2 before the water molecule... CH4+O2 --- CO2+2H2O
The oxidizing agent in the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O is oxygen (O2). Oxygen is the substance that is gaining electrons and causing the methane (CH4) to oxidize.
It is not balanced. There should be a 2 in front of H2 and H2O

The balanced equation is: CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O
The combustion of methane can be balanced in the following manner. One molecule of CH4 plus two molecules of O2 produces one molecule of CO2 plus one molecule of H2O.
Oxygen (O2) is the oxidizing agent in this reaction, as it gains electrons during the reaction to form water (H2O).
After burning methane (CH4) into Oxygen (O2) you are left with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Dihydrogen Oxide (H20).
Burning, oxidation.
I assume you were looking to balance the reaction: CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 +2H2O
The given equation represents a combustion reaction, where methane (CH4) reacts with oxygen (O2) to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The release of 218 kcal indicates that this reaction is exothermic, releasing heat energy.
