Methane, CH4, burns in oxygen gas to form water and carbon dioxide. What is the correct balanced chemical equation for this reaction?
The chemical equation is:CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O
methane + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water 2 Methane molecules plus 4 Oxygen molecules gives 2 molecules of Carbon dioxide plus 4 Water molecules.
Because a chemical change results in the formation of 1 or more new substances and a new compound is created, methane burns with a smokey flame that forms carbon dioxide and water, which makes it a chemical reaction.
The reactants are methane CH4 and oxygen O2 and the products are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O. CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O

Burning the Charcoal changes the chemical composition of it as burning, or combustion as it is known is an example of a chemical reaction.An example of a combustion reaction is burning Methane (CH4) gas, the chemical equation is:CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2OThe reaction is Methane + Oxygen gives Carbon Dioxide and Water.The reaction has changed the chemical composition of the Methane as it has 'turned into' Carbon Dioxide and Water.Burning Charcoal will also produce ONLY Carbon Dioxide and Water.Hope this helps!
A chemical equation is defined as the short-hand representation of a true chemical reaction with the help of symbols and formula.the word and balanced chemical equation for combustion of methane is given as .methane + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energyCH4(g) + 2O2(g) CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)
The chemical equation is:CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O
The combustion of a hydrocarbon yields carbon dioxide and water. CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
To the original questioneer: I've tried to split the wording of this question but it's still not understandable: "How would oxygen be represented in the f--ormula equation for the reaction of methane and oxygen to yield carbon dioxide and water -- A chemical reaction has NOT occurred if the products have -- " So could the questioneer please rephrase it?

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + Energy (Heat) Methane + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water and Energy (Heat)
methane+oxyen-->carbon dioxide+waste CH4 O2 CO2 H2O
