The reactants are methane CH4 and oxygen O2
and the products are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O.
CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O

What is the mole ratio of air to methane gas in the cumbustion of methane?
If by "air" you mean oxygen, then the mole ratio can by found by balancing a reaction equation. CH4 + 202 -> CO2 + 2H2O The ratio is 1:2.
What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels Apex?
The general equation for burning/combusting fossil fuels is:- fossil fuel + oxygen(air) = Carbon dioxide and Water.
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.
Will methane gas rise when released in the air?
Methane gas settles down because methane gas is heavier than and is carried by the upward displacement of air. ---------------------------------------------- The density of methane is 0,717 g/L and the density of air is 1,2 g/L at 0 0C; consequently methane gas raise in the air.
What is the word equation for the reaction between sulfur and air?
Sulphur + air = sulphuric oxide
What is the word equation for a candle burning in the air?
The word equation for a candle burning in the air is: Wax + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light + Heat.
Word equation for potassium burning in air?
4K(s) + O2(g) --> 2K2O
What is the word equation for methane burned in a Bunsen burner?
No it is not essential. It will burn in air or oxygen if ignited by some spark or match but there are many other ways to get burning in chemistry. The requirements for burning are fuel, oxygen and heat. Oxygen can be supplied by the air for many fires. Heat must often be introduced initially to ignite the fuel but the heat of combustion will then be enough to sustain the burning. Fuel could be methane but there are many other potential fuels in chemistry, for example hydrogen, propane, wood ... Many dry foodstuffs will burn in air if lit.
How can you reduce the impact of burning methane on global warming?
We can stop burning methane. Actually burning methane is better than letting it escape into the atmosphere. Methane, when burnt, emits carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, but methane, when released into the air, is twenty-one times more dangerous.
What is the word equation for the burning of calcium in the air?
Ca+O=CaO
Word equation for the reaction explaining what happens when you burn sodium in air?
Sodium particularly reacts with the Oxygen in the Air while burning. Sodium + Oxygen ----> Sodium oxide

What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels Apex?
The general equation for burning/combusting fossil fuels is:- fossil fuel + oxygen(air) = Carbon dioxide and Water.
What is the balanced chemical equation for burning C18H38 in air?
18CO2 (g) +38HO2 (l)
What are reasons of air pollution?
Industry (burning of coal), smog from cars, cattle (methane), volcanic activity, dust storms, pesticides.
What is the chemical equation for fossil fuels burning in the air?
For coal is carbon burning:C + O2 = CO2
How does burning forests affect the environment?
when burning forests it damages the environmentby causing more CO2 in the air and less trees to breathe in the CO2 and giving oxygen out ,when a tree is burnt it gives off a dangerous gas into the air which is methane.
