CO2 H2O carbon particulates and carbon monoxide are released into the air as methane burns How would the total number of atoms in the reactants compare to the total number of atoms in the product?

When methane burns completely no carbon monoxide (CO) would be produced.
In complete combustion the balanced equation for the burning of methane would be:
CH4 (methane) + 2O2 (oxygen) -> CO2(carbon dioxide) + 2H2O (water)
i.e. the total number of each atom in the reactants would be identical to the total number of each atom in the products.

How do reactants and products compare in a chemical reaction?
Reactants are what the products are made out of. The products are the end result.
How do the properties of reactants compare to the properties of products?
Since I do not know which reactants and which products you refer to, I can only tell you that the properties will be different.
In a chemical reaction how does the total mass of the reactants compare to the total mass of the products?
The mass of the reactants compare to the mass of the products in that they are equal. The law to conservation of mass states that mass cannot be createdor destroyed. It can only be altered which would be a case in a chemical reaction.
In a combustion reaction between butane and oxygen which contains more energy reactants catalyst products or products and reactants contain the same amount of energy?
Every combustion process is exothermic (the release of heat and light) so the products have low energy as compare to reactants which are in this case Butane and oxygen.
How does mass of the reactants compare with the mass of the products?
The Law of Conservation of Mass applies. The total mass of all the reactants MUST equal the total mass of all the products, The individual comoounds may vary. e,g, A + B = C + D 25 g (A) + 30g (B) = 55 g of reactants. So the total mass of the products MUST equal 55 g. However, product (C) may have a mass of 40g , then product (D) MUST equal 15 g Hence 40 g + 15 g = 55 g,
How do reactants and products compare in a chemical reaction?
Reactants are what the products are made out of. The products are the end result.
How does the mass of the product in a chemical reaction compare with the mass of the reactants?
The mass of the products should equal the mass of the reactants.
How do the properties of reactants compare to the properties of products?
Since I do not know which reactants and which products you refer to, I can only tell you that the properties will be different.
How do the product of photosynthesis compare to the reactants of respiration?
they are they same. the products of photosynthesis are oxygen and glucose and the reactants of cellular respiration are gluose and oxygen.
How does the mass of the of respiration compare with the mass of the reactants?
cannot be created or destroyed so stays the same

How does the mass of the product of respiration compare with the mass of the reactants?
cannot be created or destroyed so stays the same
How does the mass of the products of respiration compare with the mass of the reactants?
cannot be created or destroyed so stays the same
How does the mass of the products in a chemical equation compare to the mass of a reaction?
In a closed system, the mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants.
In a combustion reaction between butane and oxygen which contains more energy reactants catalyst products or products and reactants contain the same amount of energy?
Every combustion process is exothermic (the release of heat and light) so the products have low energy as compare to reactants which are in this case Butane and oxygen.
If you were to compare the mass of the products and reactants in a reaction what would you find?
They would be equal .Because of the conservation of matter no mass can be destroyed or created
In a chemical reaction how do the chemical properties of the products compare with the properties of the reactants?
the product's properties usually and may differ from the properties of the reactants. Example-salt-sodium, a soft explosive metal and chlorine, a toxic gas. make salt.
