Answer:


\huge \boxed{\mathrm{CH_4+ 2O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O}}


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:


\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 + H_2O

Balancing the Hydrogen atoms on the right side,


\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O

Balancing the Oxygen atoms on the left side,


\sf CH_4+ 2O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O


\rule[225]{225}{2}

(complete combustion of methane: methane + oxygen --> water + carbon dioxide)
