What order should atoms be balanced in a hydrocarbon combustion reaction?
Answer this question… Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
Are atoms a compound?
Atoms are elements, not compounds. Compounds are composed of two or more different atoms. For example, the element carbon, with the symbol C, is composed of atoms. If you combine carbon and oxygen to make carbon dioxide (CO2) then you have a compound, composed of molecules, each of which have 3 atoms, one carbon and two oxygen.
How do you create carbon monoxide?
A hydrocarbon fuel burnt in an atmosphere with sufficient oxygen will create water and carbon dioxide, i.e. both the hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms in the fuel combine with two oxygen atoms. However if there is not enough oxygen available the carbon atoms will form a double bond with a single oxygen atom forming carbon monoxide.
What is a compound containing 3 atoms of carbon and 8 atoms of hydrogen combined in a reaction with oxygen molecules?
C3H8 (butane) + 5 O2 (oxygen) --> 3 CO2 (carbon dioxide) + 4 H2O (water)
Which two atoms are most common in the human body?
By atoms: hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon By mass: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen
When carbon dioxide is formed when two oxygen atoms chemically combine with a carbon atom?
Carbon dioxide is the product of a combustion reaction.
A compound containing 3 atoms of carbon and 8 atoms of hydrogen is combine in a reaction with oxygen molecules the two end product of this equation are carbon dioxide CO2and water what element sho?
propane
What do you get if you combine one carbon atom with three oxygen atoms?
A molecule containing one Carbon atom and three Oxygen atoms, CO3, is called Carbon Trioxide. It is unstable and normally decays into carbon dioxide and oxygen.
When methane burns completely in air hydrogen and carbon atoms combine with oxygen to form which new products?
Methane is CH4, one carbon atom and 4 hydrogen atoms. When burned in air, the carbon atom combines with 2 oxygen atoms to form one carbon dioxide molecule, CO2, and the four hydrogen atoms combine in pairs with one oxygen atom to form two H20 molecules. CH4 + O2 + 2O = CO2 + 2H20. This is an exothermic reaction, meaning that it releases heat.

Answer this question… Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
What new substance if one molecule of carbon combine with two molecule of oxygen?
It is sort of tricky question. One molecule of carbon can combine with only one molecule of oxygen. It can not combine with two molecules of oxygen. Incidentally one molecule of carbon is composed of one atom of carbon. One molecule of oxygen is composed of two atoms of oxygen.

Is carbon atoms and oxygen atoms a compound?
NO!!! Carbon atoms are not a compound Oxygen atoms are not a compound. However, they do combine to form the compound carbon dioxide (CO2)
How many atoms are carbon in a molecule of glucose?
Glucose (C6H12O6) is a monosaccharide that contains twelve hydrogen atoms, six carbon atoms and six oxygen atoms. A glucose and fructose molecule combine to create a sucrose molecule.
When you combine an carbon atom with a oxygen atom what kind of carbon dioxide do you get?
The "kind" called Carbon Monoxide. In other words, you don't get Carbon Dioxide. (You need two atoms of Oxygen to get Carbon Dioxide, hence the "di" part.)
