Burning, oxidation.
A combustion reaction.
one methane molecule plus two oxygen (gas) molecules yields one carbon dioxide molecule plus 2 water molecules.
CH4 has no lone pairs.So it is tetrahedral.
The geometry of Methane (CH4) is tetrahedron or tetrahedral
They do not have the same solid angles. Also, CH4 has five atoms while H2O has three.
The chemical reaction is: CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 CO2 is the carbon dioxide.
this is an exotermic reaction
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2(H2O), the products are CO2 and H2O
exothermic
CO2 + 2H2O + energy
Combustion reaction.
The combustion of a hydrocarbon yields carbon dioxide and water. CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
ch4 + 2o2 → co2 + 2h2o
ch4 + 2o2 → co2 + 2h2o
A combustion reaction.
CH4 + 2O2 📷 CO2 + 2H2O + Heat
It is a COMBUSTION reaction. However, if you just mix the two gases they do not react. Activation energy is needed in the form of an external flame.
