Methane is a molecule with the formula of CH4 .!!!

It is only unbalanced if it is involved in a chemical reaction (combustion).

e.g.

CH4 + O2 = 2H2O + C

Here it is unbalanced(too much CH4) because CO2( Carbon Dioxide ) is the other product, which is NOT produced in this reaction.

The equation

CH4 + 2O2 = 2H2O + CO2

Methane is now balanced, just the correct quantity for the reaction to complete.

NB For all compounds, they are neither balanced nor unbalanced. It is the quantities that are reacted that make the reaction (un)/balanced.

How do you explain weather the force is balanced or unbalanced?

Forces (plural) are balanced if their vector sum is zero. Since an unbalanced force causes an acceleration, if an object isn't accelerating then the forces on it are balanced.


What is the definition of unbalanced foces?

-- A group of two or more forces is unbalanced when the vector sumof its individual component forces is not zero.-- A group of two or more forces is balanced when the vector sumof its individual component forces is zero.Notice that it's not the forces that are balanced or unbalanced.It's the whole group of them that's balanced or unbalanced.


What do balanced and unbalanced chemical equations share in common?

Both balanced and unbalanced chemical equations represent the chemical reactions that take place between reactants to form products. The key difference is that balanced equations have an equal number of atoms of each element on both sides, while unbalanced equations do not.


What are similarities between balanced forces and action reaction forces?

There is no such thing as a balanced force or an unbalanced force. A groupof two or more forces may be balanced or unbalanced. The group of forces isbalanced if the vector sum of all the forces in the group is zero.


Is pushing a box but it doesnt move a balanced or unbalanced force?

There's no such thing as a balanced force or an unbalanced force.If the entire group of all the forces on an object is unbalanced, then the objectundergoes acceleration, or its "motion changes". If the group of forces on it isbalanced, then its motion doesn't change.
