CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O
Carbon monoxide and methane
Methane + Oxygen > Carbon (soot) + Water
To determine the moles of carbon dioxide produced from the combustion of methane, we first need to balance the chemical equation for the combustion of methane: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. From the balanced equation, we see that 1 mole of methane produces 1 mole of carbon dioxide. The molar mass of methane (CH4) is 16.05 g/mol, and the molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) is 44.01 g/mol. Therefore, 100.0 grams of methane is equivalent to 100.0 g / 16.05 g/mol = 6.23 moles of methane, which would produce 6.23 moles of carbon dioxide.
combustible?
it burns and seperates actually it burns and oxygen burns it , methane is the gas that we mostly use in southern countries for cooking
Cody bogg did and he said that it is possible!
The reactants when methane burns in oxygen are methane and oxygen. The products are CO2, water and heat about 890 Kj/mole is given out. The equation is : CH4(g) + 2O2 _______> CO2 + 2H2O + Heat (-890 Kj/mole) When one mole of methane gas reacts with (burns in) 2 moles of oxygen gas we get 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water and 890 Kilo joules of heat is released. This reaction is exothermic as heat is released and a combustion reaction as methane gas is burned in free supply oxygen not limited supply otherwise carbon monoxide (CO) will be formed. Hope that helped you out. :-D
Methane, CH4, burns in oxygen gas to form water and carbon dioxide. What is the correct balanced chemical equation for this reaction?
When methane burns, the carbon dioxide and water formed, equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of the oxygen.
In carbondioxide: CH4 + 3 O2 ==> CO2 + 2 H2O
CH4
methane + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water 2 Methane molecules plus 4 Oxygen molecules gives 2 molecules of Carbon dioxide plus 4 Water molecules.
