Ultraviolet Light
Chloromethane is the product that is formed when methane and chlorine react with each other. Dichloromethane is another product that can also be formed when methane and chlorine react.
Theotically, methane can't react with Cl2 in shade as UV light is required to initiate the substitution reaction. Only when there is Cl2 can the C-H bond be broken. However, alkene can react directly with Cl2 due to hydrohalogenation.
Sodium and Chlorine form Sodium Chloride when they react. This is because the cation of sodium is added to the anion of chlorine.
methane and oxygen react together (combustion) to give carbon dioxide + water. The reactants are methane and oxygen which react to form the products water and carbon dioxide.
It does not react with any element, but it does with any besides water. Chlorine is classified as a halogen, a highly reactive nonmetal.

Methane does not react with chlorine in the dark.
Energy! Methane is a stable molecule and oxygen is almost (pretty) stable. The there is sufficient energy, called activiation energy, then the two gases will react

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

Methane and bromine cannot react without the presence of sunlight or U.V light because of lack of energy which is usually supplied by the U.V light to break the bromine molecules to free radicals for the reaction to occur.Hope my answer helped.ABUAD
It undergoes substitution reaction reaction in presence of sunlight by forming four different product like chloroform,carbon tetrachloride etc.................
You start with methane (CH4 ) and chlorine ( Cl2) and react them thus:- CH4 + Cl2 → CH3Cl + HCl CH3Cl + Cl2 → CH2Cl2 + HCl CH2Cl2 + Cl2 → CHCl3 + HCl
Sodium and Chlorine form Sodium Chloride when they react. This is because the cation of sodium is added to the anion of chlorine.
Chlorine doesn't react with chlorine.
