What kind of chemical changes produces heat?

Exothermic chemical reactions release energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. A common example would be the combustion (oxidation) of methane*:Methane: CH4 + 2O2 -----> CO2 + 2H2O + Energy (heat and light)* The combustion of methane (natural gas) is commonly used to heat water, cook, and to heat homes.


The reaction for the combustion of methane is?

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.


When methane is burned in the presence of oxygen the two chemicals react together what is the combustion reactions?

Methane plus oxygen produces water and carbon dioxide, plus energy.


When methane and oxygen react in a combustion reaction what produces?

When methane and oxygen react in a combustion reaction, carbon dioxide and water are produced, along with heat and light as energy is released. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O.


Is the combustion of methane endo or exothermic reaction?

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.


Is this reaction Endothermic The combustion of propane in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. And does methane or propane produce more energy combustion I just dont understand this?

All the combustion reactions I know of are exothermic because heat is released instead of absorbed. And propane gives more energy than methane cause it has more Cs and Hs to react with Oxygen, so one mole of propane will react more and form more product than one mole of methane and giving out more energy.

Chemical reaction that produces heat?

Chemical reactions that produce heat (or energy) are known as Exothermic Reactions. (Example: combustion of fuels)


What is the chemical formula for combustion of methane?

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + Energy (Heat) Methane + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water and Energy (Heat)


What energy produces fossil fuel?

Through combustion they produce heat.


What is combustion of CH4?

Combustion of CH4, or methane, is a chemical reaction where methane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. The reaction releases energy in the form of heat and light, making it an important source of energy for heating and electricity generation. Methane combustion is also a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming.


Why is the enthalpy change of combustion for methanol less negative than methane?

The combustion of methanol to form products of H2O and CO2 do not have as much of an energy change compared to methane and a result methanol releases less energy compared to methane. The more negative an enthalpy change is, the more heat it is going to release.


What does a combustion reaction produce?

Carbon dioxide
