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)
Methane is a molecule with the formula of CH4 .!!! It is only unbalanced if it is involved in a chemical reaction (combustion). e.g. CH4 + O2 = 2H2O + C Here it is unbalanced(too much CH4) because CO2( Carbon Dioxide ) is the other product, which is NOT produced in this reaction. The equation CH4 + 2O2 = 2H2O + CO2 Methane is now balanced, just the correct quantity for the reaction to complete. NB For all compounds, they are neither balanced nor unbalanced. It is the quantities that are reacted that make the reaction (un)/balanced.
zinc + ethanol + water + chloroform + copper sulphate solution
The Bunsen burner is an instrument, not a chemical with a formula. If the fuel is methane the general reaction of combustion is: 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!

Methane, CH4, burns in oxygen gas to form water and carbon dioxide. What is the correct balanced chemical equation for this reaction?

If you're talking about a chemical equation for a situation where you have an environment containing only methane and propane, there can be no balanced equation because with no oxygen, neither gas will burn.

The chemical equation is:CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O
A chemical formula is the way a particular chemical (element or compound) is represented using the letters given in the Periodic Table. For example, the chemical formula of oxygen is O2 and the chemical formula of caron dioxide is CO2A word equation describes a chemical reactionusing the names of chemicals only. For instance, the word equation for respiration is:glucose + oxygen => carbon dioxide + waterA formula equation also describes a chemical reaction, but uses chemical formulae instead of names and is balanced. An example of this would be methane burning in oxygen:CH4 + 2O2 => CO2 + 2H2O
