In the complete combustion of methane gas you produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas.
In the incomplete combustion of methane you can produce solid carbon with water or other carbon containing products along with water.
Hopefully this gives you some help.

∙ 11y agoIncomplete combustion is when there is not enough oxygen (O2) in the air for the fuel to fully combust. This results in the products being water (H2O) + carbon monoxide (CO) + carbon/soot (C). Notice how carbon monoxide (which is toxic) is produced instead of carbon dioxide.
The balanced equation for this is:
C3H8 + 3.5O2 ----> 3CO + 4H2O
OR
C3H8 + 7O2 ---->6CO + 8H20

Why is incomplete combustion messy?
A complete combustion reaction will produce CO2 and H2O, while an incomplete combustion reaction produces CO and H2O.
What is the combustion equation for ethanol burned in oxygen?
Combustion of ethanol with oxygen: C2H5OH + 3 O2 --> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O + 'Heat'
What is the heat of reaction for ethanol fermentation from glucose?
-1277.36kJ is the heat of combustion of ethanol. It is not the heat of fermentation for the production of ethanol.
Does water affect the heat of combustion of ethanol?
There are two angles to this question: 1. If your ethanol is contaminated with water it will reduced the amount of useful heat generated since the water will boil off while the ethanol is burning. 2. The water generated as a result of combustion is included as a term in the calculation of heat of combustion.
Is ethanol combustion exothermic?
All types of combustions are exothermic.
What are dangers of incomplete combustion?
The Main danger of incomplete combustion is the production of carbon monoxide.
What is an example of incomplete combustion of sucrose?
For example the preparation of caramel can be considered an incomplete combustion.
What does incomplete combustion do to the engine of a car?
Incomplete combustion in an engine indicates that all of the fuel has not been burnt. Incomplete combustion can cause clogging and damage to the valves in the engine of a car.
What gas is produced during the incomplete combustion?
the poisoness gas produced by incomplete combustion is carbon monoxide:)
What are the precautions to be taken during incomplete combustion?
A regular supply of oxygen or air can avoid the incomplete combustion.
Why is incomplete combustion messy?
A complete combustion reaction will produce CO2 and H2O, while an incomplete combustion reaction produces CO and H2O.
What is the symbol equation for incomplete combustion of methane?
Incomplete combustion of Methane is....2CH4 + 2O2 --> CO + C + 4H2O
What is the equation for the incomplete combustion of decane?
Incomplete combustion of decane is ...2 C10H22 + 21 O2 ==> 20CO + 22H2O
Can incomplete combustion of natural gas produce aldehyde?
Yes, incomplete combustion of natural gas can produce aldehyde. It is also stated that incomplete combustion of natural gas also produces carbon monoxide.
What is the incomplete symbol equation for combustion of methane ch4?
Incomplete combustion of Methane is....2CH4 + 2O2 --> CO + C + 4H2O
What is the combustion equation for ethanol burned in oxygen?
Combustion of ethanol with oxygen: C2H5OH + 3 O2 --> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O + 'Heat'
Why is incomplete combustion of fuels more harmful to human beings?
Incomplete combustion often produces toxic compounds such as carbon monoxide.
