CH4 is the chemical formula of methane; 4 is the number of carbon atoms.
methane is a compound as one carbon atoms combines with 4 hydrogen atoms.
Elmer's Glue.
Carbon is a tetravalent chemical element.
Roughly 16.011.
The chemical formula of methane is CH4; if you think to atoms methane has 5 atoms.
Each molecule of methane contains one carbon atom, as shown by the formula for methane, CH4. Therefore, the number of carbon atoms in one mole of methane is the same as Avogadro's Number, about 6.022 X 1023.
CH4 is the chemical formula of methane; 4 is the number of carbon atoms.
The molecule of methane has 5 atoms.
Methane - CH4 - has 5 atoms.
Your question is not so clear. Methane has carbon and hydrogen atoms, the chemical formula being CH4. Dodecane contain also carbon and hydrogen atoms, the chemical formula being C12H26; the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms is here different. Or, otherwise it is clear that 10 g of methane contain more atoms than 1 g of methane.
The molecular formula of methane is CH4. Therefore, the number of atoms per molecule is 5, the fraction of the atoms that are carbon is 1/5 and the fraction of the atoms that are hydrogen is 4/5.
methane is a compound as one carbon atoms combines with 4 hydrogen atoms.
Up to four atoms; ex.: methane, CH4.
The molecular formula is CH4. This molecule is know as Carbon tetrahydride or more simply Methane.
False, They contain the same number of molecules, not the same number of atoms. H2O contains 3 atoms, so in 1 mole of water there are 6.022*10^23 * 3 = 1.81*10^24 atoms. CH4 contains 5 atoms, so in 1 mole of methane there are 6.022*10^23 * 5 =3.01*10^24 atoms.
