One (CH4).
(per molecule)
This is very basic math. Carbon = 6/8*Methane (6/8)*4=3 3 g
hydrogen methane
In methane (CH4), carbon is in the 4- oxidation state.
Carbon is a chemical element; methane (CH4) is a chemical compound containing carbon.
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.
1 atom of carbon (C) in 1 molecule of methane (CH4)
Methane + Oxygen > Carbon (soot) + Water
In methane, the combined protons from the carbon and hydrogen, are equal in number to the combined amount of electrons. This gives a total net charge of 0, it is neutral.
Methane has the molecular structure of CH4, it contains a carbon atom, thus it is a carbon compound. But it is not itself considered carbon.
Methane contain 1 carbon & 4 hydrogen elements.
No. Methane contains only carbon and hydrogen.
methane is a compound as one carbon atoms combines with 4 hydrogen atoms.
