Reaction of combustion of methane will give off lot of energy.
In any combustion reaction there will always be formation of water vapor and heat.
Methane + oxygen = combustion reaction.
1. Combustion: reacting methane with oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water.
2. Halogenation: reacting methane with a halogen (X2) produces an acid (HX), ethane, and a mixture of CH3X, CH2X2, and CHX3. This process follows the free-radical holgenation mechanism.
3. Steam Reforming AKA Fossil Fuel Reforming: reacting methane (the fossil fuel) with high-temperature steam to produce hydrogen (among other compounds).
Let's think about what happens in the combustion of methane. Take natural gas for example (methane) used to heat homes, or used in stoves. The product is heat, therefore heat is given off. Therefore EXOTHERMIC.
Oxygen is NOT a PRODUCT (it is not produced) from the complete combustion of methane, it is a REACTANT (it is used in the reaction). The answer is therefore a mass of zero.
The standard enthalpy of combustion for methane is -890 kJ/mol.
Hydrogen combines with oxygen at the completion of a combustion reaction to form water. The following is the balanced equation for the combustion of methane (CH4). CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
This is a neutralization reaction, not a combustion reaction.
Methane gas is a compound; you think probable to the combustion of methane.
Let's think about what happens in the combustion of methane. Take natural gas for example (methane) used to heat homes, or used in stoves. The product is heat, therefore heat is given off. Therefore EXOTHERMIC.
water vapors and carbon dioxide.
Combustion of metals forms metal oxides. Combustion of hydrocarbons, like methane, forms carbon dioxide and water.
methane+oxyen-->carbon dioxide+waste CH4 O2 CO2 H2O
Check your spelling- think you mean methane. Burning (combustion) of ANYTHING is a chemical reaction.
Oxygen is NOT a PRODUCT (it is not produced) from the complete combustion of methane, it is a REACTANT (it is used in the reaction). The answer is therefore a mass of zero.
For the combustion of 50 mL methane only 1,05 g oxygen are needed.
CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + Energy (Heat) Methane + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water and Energy (Heat)
Hydrocarbons such as methane burning in oxygen is an example of oxidation and also combustion.
The standard enthalpy of combustion for methane is -890 kJ/mol.
Incomplete combustion of Methane is....2CH4 + 2O2 --> CO + C + 4H2O
