CH4 + 2O2 gives CO2 and 2H2O.So 16g of CH4 react with 64g of O2.So 24g react with 96g of O2
Unbalanced CH4 + O2 = H2O + CO2 Balanced CH4 + 2O2 = 2H20 + CO2
I assume you were looking to balance the reaction: CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 +2H2O
Oxygen (O2) is the oxidizing agent in this reaction, as it gains electrons during the reaction to form water (H2O).
In the reaction 4 moles of aluminum will react with 3 moles of oxygen to form 2 moles of aluminum oxide. Since we have 2.0 moles of aluminum, we would need (2.0 mol Al) x (3 mol O2 / 4 mol Al) = 1.5 moles of O2 to react with it.
The combustion of methane can be balanced in the following manner. One molecule of CH4 plus two molecules of O2 produces one molecule of CO2 plus one molecule of H2O.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between CH4 and O2 is as follows: CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O By comparing the moles of CH4 and O2 given, you can see that O2 is the limiting reactant because it will be completely consumed before all of the CH4 can react.
Methane , CH4 , is a fuel that can react with O2 to yield CO2, H2O, and heat. CH4 (g) + O2 (g) ----> CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g) + Heat
To determine the limiting reagent, we need to compare the amount of each reactant to their stoichiometric coefficients in the balanced equation. The balanced equation for the combustion of CH4 with O2 is: CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O. From the given amounts, we can see that O2 is in excess, so CH4 is the limiting reagent.
To calculate the mass of oxygen required to react with 20 grams of CH4, we first need to write and balance the chemical equation for the reaction. The balanced equation for the combustion of CH4 is: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O This equation tells us that 1 mole of CH4 reacts with 2 moles of O2. The molar mass of CH4 is 16 g/mol. Therefore, 20 grams of CH4 is equal to 20/16 = 1.25 moles CH4. So, 1.25 moles of CH4 would require 2.50 moles of O2. The molar mass of O2 is 32 g/mol. Therefore, the mass of O2 required would be 2.50 moles * 32 g/mol = 80 grams.
To react completely with one molecule of methane (CH4), two molecules of oxygen (O2) are needed. This is because the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of methane is CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. Each molecule of methane requires two molecules of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O. Using stoichiometry, we find that 3g of H2 will react completely with 24g of O2 to form 18g of H2O. Therefore, the maximum amount of H2O formed when 3g of H2 reacts with 29g of O2 is 18g.
128 g of oxygen are needed.
The balanced equation is: CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O
When 85.0 g of CH4 are mixed with 160. g of O2 the limiting reactant is __________. CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O shows that 1 molecule of CH4 reacts with 2 molecules of O2 to produce 1 molecule of CO2 and 2 molecules of H2O. This equation ensures that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the reaction arrow.
Methane reacts with oxygen in the following way. CH4 + 3 O2 --> CO2 + 4 H2O. If 5 moles of oxygen react with 2.8 moles of methane, only 1.67 moles of methane would be consumed because of the molar ratio 1:3. This would produce 1.67 moles of carbon dioxide and 6.67 moles of water.
The balanced chemical reaction equation says that you get 3 moles of O2.m O2 = ( n O2 ) ( M O2 )m O2 = ( 3 mol O2 ) ( 32.00 g O2 / mol O2 = 96 g O2
