How does cows increase the level of carbon dioxide?
Cows, and cattle rearing, have a carbon footprint, but it's caused mostly from the amount of methane they belch. They don't do much to increase carbon dioxide levels.
Why is carbon dioxide and nitrogen produce when you burn methane?
Burning methane produces carbon dioxide and water vapor, but not nitrogen. This is because methane is composed of carbon and hydrogen, whose oxides are carbon dioxide and water respectively.
Does the hydrogen on methane go when it becomes carbon dioxide?
Methane burns in oxygen and gets oxidised. Carbon is oxidised to carbon dioxide, hydrogen to water.
What is the valency of carbon in methane and carbon dioxide?
4
When methane burns carbon dioxide and water are formed The mass of carbon dioxide plus the mass of water equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of OXYGEN?
When methane burns, the carbon dioxide and water formed, equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of the oxygen.

Methane oxygen carbon dioxide water?
methane and oxygen react together (combustion) to give carbon dioxide + water. The reactants are methane and oxygen which react to form the products water and carbon dioxide.

Which gas in the atmosphere Global warming focuses on an increase in the level of heat?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and also Methane.
When methane burns carbon dioxide and water are formed The mass of carbon dioxide plus the mass of water equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of OXYGEN?
When methane burns, the carbon dioxide and water formed, equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of the oxygen.
What commonly contains water ammonia carbon dioxide and methane.?
Water is H2O, ammonia is NH3, carbon dioxide is CO2 and methane is CH4.
What are the two main greenhouse gases causing global warming?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane gas (CH4).Carbon Dioxide and Methane :)
What has more energy rich bonds carbon dioxide or methane?
methane
How are the products of combustion different when carbon is burnt rather than methane?
When carbon is burnt, Carbon Dioxide only is produced. When methane is burnt, both carbon dioxide and water are produced.
How many times worse is methane compared to carbon dioxide?
Methane is twenty-one times more powerful a greenhouse gas as carbon dioxide.
