The reaction is:
CH4 + 2O2 = CO2 + 2H2O
Carbon dioxide (gas) and water (also as a gas) are formed. The water vapours are transformed in a liquid by condensation on a cold surface.
Natural gas burns with a blue flame due to its high concentration of methane. The blue color is a result of complete combustion, indicating that the fuel is burning efficiently.
Natural gas burns blue because of the chemical composition of methane, which is the main component of natural gas. When methane burns, it produces a clean and efficient flame that appears blue due to the complete combustion process.
The reactants when methane burns in oxygen are methane and oxygen. The products are CO2, water and heat about 890 Kj/mole is given out. The equation is : CH4(g) + 2O2 _______> CO2 + 2H2O + Heat (-890 Kj/mole) When one mole of methane gas reacts with (burns in) 2 moles of oxygen gas we get 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water and 890 Kilo joules of heat is released. This reaction is exothermic as heat is released and a combustion reaction as methane gas is burned in free supply oxygen not limited supply otherwise carbon monoxide (CO) will be formed. Hope that helped you out. :-D
The burning of natural gas is a chemical property because it involves a chemical reaction. When natural gas (methane) reacts with oxygen in the air, it produces carbon dioxide, water, and heat energy. This is a chemical change as new substances are formed.
The allotropic forms of carbon, Diamond, Graphite and others have only carbon-carbon bonds
Oxygen, Carbon, Hydrogen. <- There are three new ones.
combustible?
it burns and seperates actually it burns and oxygen burns it , methane is the gas that we mostly use in southern countries for cooking
Elements.
Methane hydrate is a combination of methane (CH4) and water (H2O).
Carbon dioxide and water, assuming the fuel is a hydrocarbon.
When methane burns, the carbon dioxide and water formed, equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of the oxygen.
Methane and Hydrogen
In carbondioxide: CH4 + 3 O2 ==> CO2 + 2 H2O
Carbon monoxide is the poisonous gas formed when methane burns in a limited supply of air.
Carbon monoxide and methane
