Answer:

The first reactant is methane, the next is oxygen, the first product is carbon dioxide and the second product is water.

The word equation is:

methane + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water

The balanced symbol equation is:

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

Step-by-step explanation:

In any combustion reaction, fuel is burned in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.

An equation is balanced when there are the same number of atoms of each element on both sides of the arrow.

Hope this helps!
