CH4, the chemical formula for Methane, is not inert. This is because it is very flammable and reacts readily with oxygen (combustion) according to the reaction:
CH4 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O + A lot of heat
However, if you try to burn pure methane, you will not get the chemical reaction listed above. In fact, if you tried to light pure methane with a candle, the gas would just snuff out the candle. This "snuffing-out" can be misunderstood as CH4 being inert, or not reacting to the presence of heat.
The chemical formula for methane is CH4.
Ch4 is not an element, it's the compound Methane
CH4 is the chemical formula of methane; 4 is the number of carbon atoms.
The chemical symbol for methane is CH4.
No they are five atoms.It is not diatomic.
Just go to google images
ch4 is an atom.
No. CH4 is nonpolar.
CH4 = Methane
CH4 is generally not considered an acid.
It is going to be (CH4) :)
Answer 1CH4
Molecular formula: CH4 Structural formula: . H H C H . H CH4 (1 carbon and 4 hydrogen) it is NOT ch4 it is CH4; 4 being a subscript indicating 4 hydrogen atoms bonded into a single carbon atom
CH4 has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral.
The chemical formula for methane is CH4.
CH4 has four even repulsive units.So they spread evenly makina CH4 non polar
The chemical formula for methane gas is CH4. It is composed of one carbon atom bonded to four hydrogen atoms.
