What are the coefficients for the following reaction when it is properly balanced O2 plus CH4 --- CO2 plus H2O?
Well Carbon monoxide oxygen most likely looks like this CO O2
and Carbon Dioxide is CO2 so if you put a 2 in front of CO and CO2
then your equation becomes balanced and looks like this 2CO + O2
--> 2CO2 Each side has 2 carbon and 4 oxygen.
