Question

Qué tipo de reacción es el siguiente? CH4 + 02

CO2 + H2O

Answer 1

It is a combustion reaction, where the compound METHANE, which would be CH4, is combusted

Step-by-step explanation:

In combustion, the reactants are always the compound that will combuste the most oxygen, and in the products there is water and carbon dioxide as the product.

But there are two types of combustions, the complete and the incomplete, in this case how the methane was completely combusted and not in a partial way it would be a complete combustion.

Combustion reactions are EXOTHERMIC AND IRREVERSIBLE reactions.

Answer 2

Combustion reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

CH₄ + 2 O₂ ⇒ CO₂ + 2 H₂O

This reaction is known as a combustion reaction, in which a compound reacts with oxygen to form a compound of carbon and water.

• If the product is carbon dioxide, the combustion is complete.
• If the product is carbon monoxide or carbon, the combustion is incomplete.
