What do you get when you burn CH4 in O2?

It is an ignition reaction.It will produce CO2 and water.


How much oxygen goes into a Bunsen burner when the flame is blue?

To burn blue flames at least twice as much O2 is needed to burn one measured volume of natural gas CH4.CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O


24g of CH4 react with 96 g of O2?

CH4 + 2O2 gives CO2 and 2H2O.So 16g of CH4 react with 64g of O2.So 24g react with 96g of O2


How do you balance the equation for CH4 O2 yield CO2 H2O?

Assuming complete combustion: CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2.


Why can't you smell CH4?

CH4 like O2 is a gas that doesn't have a smell.But because of its chemical properties,specifically the ability to burn and explode, it was impregnated artificially with the smell of another substance called mercaptan.


Why CH4 is enert?

CH4, the chemical formula for Methane, is not inert. This is because it is very flammable and reacts readily with oxygen (combustion) according to the reaction: CH4 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O + A lot of heat However, if you try to burn pure methane, you will not get the chemical reaction listed above. In fact, if you tried to light pure methane with a candle, the gas would just snuff out the candle. This "snuffing-out" can be misunderstood as CH4 being inert, or not reacting to the presence of heat.


What happens to methane when burned in little oxygen?

No methane wont burn in oxygen free atmosphere Because you need oxygen to burn Methane. Methane by itself, even in the presence of lightning and comet strikes, is a perfectly safe gas. so methane does not burn in absence of oxygen Vishal Rijhwani


If 2.8 moles of CH4 react with 3 moles of O2 what is the limiting reagent?

Take the balanced equation. CH4+2O2---->CO2+2H2O.So 2.8mol of CH4 need 5.6mol of O2.So O2 is limitting factor


How do you balance the following equation ch4 plus o2 ------- co2 plus h20?

CH4+O2 --- CO2+H2O... All that's missing - is the number 2 before the water molecule... CH4+O2 --- CO2+2H2O


What is the balanced equation of CH4 plus O2 arrow CO2H2O?

The balanced equation is: CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O


What is the balanced equation for methane burns oxygen to form water and carbon diooxide?

Unbalanced CH4 + O2 = H2O + CO2 Balanced CH4 + 2O2 = 2H20 + CO2


When 85.0 g of CH4 are mixed with 160 g of O2 the limiting reactant is?

When 85.0 g of CH4 are mixed with 160. g of O2 the limiting reactant is __________. CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
