Who Knows? :)
O.o
In methane (CH4), the valency of carbon is 4. In carbon dioxide (CO2), the valency of carbon is 4 as well. Carbon has four valence electrons and forms four covalent bonds in both compounds.
The valency of carbon in CH4 is 4, as it forms four covalent bonds with hydrogen. In C2H2, the valency of carbon is 2, as it forms two covalent bonds with hydrogen. In C2H6, the valency of carbon is 4, as it forms four covalent bonds with hydrogen.
1 atom of carbon (C) in 1 molecule of methane (CH4)
Valency of carbon is 4. It remains 4 in ethane too.
The molecular formula is CH4. This molecule is know as Carbon tetrahydride or more simply Methane.
The molecule of methane has 5 atoms.
When methane is burned, one molecule of methane (CH4) reacts with two molecules of oxygen (O2) to produce one molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2) and two molecules of water (H2O). So, for every molecule of methane burned, one molecule of carbon dioxide is produced.
But-
One methane molecule contains one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms.
Methane is CH4 and has the elements carbon and hydrogen.
There are no neutrons in a molecule of methane. Neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms, whereas methane is a molecule composed of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms.
One (CH4). (per molecule)
