Methane and oxygen do react with each other at room temperature, but the reaction requires an input of energy to get started. Once the reaction begins, it is exothermic and produces heat and water as byproducts. This reaction typically needs a spark or flame to initiate it, which is why methane does not spontaneously combust in air at room temperature.

What happens to potassium at room temp?
Potassium is a soft, silver-white metal that is solid at room temperature. It is highly reactive and will react with moisture and oxygen in the air, tarnishing quickly. It is stored under mineral oil to protect it from reacting with oxygen and water vapor in the air.
Is CH4 liquid at room temp?
No, methane (CH4) is a gas at room temperature and pressure. It needs to be cooled to very low temperatures (-161.5°C) to become a liquid.
Is oxygen a solid or gas at room temperature?
For oxygen to be a liqud it has to be extremly cold and to be a liquid it has to be even colder. Room temp is quite hot. If you want more information have a look at wikipedia.
What temp is steel at room temp?
Steel is typically at room temperature, which is around 68-77°F (20-25°C).
What is the state at room temp of boron?
Boron is a solid at room temperature.
Is Oxygen inert at room temp?
No, oxygen is very reactive at any temperature.
What is oxygen at a state room temp?
Its a gas (its what we all breathe)
What happens to potassium at room temp?
Potassium is a soft, silver-white metal that is solid at room temperature. It is highly reactive and will react with moisture and oxygen in the air, tarnishing quickly. It is stored under mineral oil to protect it from reacting with oxygen and water vapor in the air.
Why is water liquid at room temp but oxygen is gas at room temp?
Water molecules have stronger intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding) that keep them together as a liquid at room temperature. Oxygen molecules have weaker intermolecular forces, so they stay as a gas at room temperature.
What has the kinetic energy at room temp gas water oxygen or soda?
Water, as is it a liquid.
Is CH4 liquid at room temp?
No, methane (CH4) is a gas at room temperature and pressure. It needs to be cooled to very low temperatures (-161.5°C) to become a liquid.
What temp is titanium at room temp?
It is simply room temp. An example of room temp is usually 68° to 75°
Why is h20 a liquid at room temp and ch4 is a gas?
everything depends on the Hydrogen bonding which creates long chains of molecules in water, but this is not possible in Methane.
What temp is room temp?
room temperature is 65 degrees Fahrenheit
Is oxygen a solid or gas at room temperature?
For oxygen to be a liqud it has to be extremly cold and to be a liquid it has to be even colder. Room temp is quite hot. If you want more information have a look at wikipedia.
What temp is steel at room temp?
Steel is typically at room temperature, which is around 68-77°F (20-25°C).
Is ammonia a gas temp?
gas at room temp
