Question

Explain the equation =
CH4 + O2 --> CO2 + 2H20.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation describes the combustion of methane (CH4). Methane burns in oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide and water.

The equation is also not balanced. O2 should have a coefficient of 2.

Answer 2

C atoms move to CO2
H atoms move to 2H2O
O atoms move to CO2 and 2H2O
