β 11y agoWhen methane is burnt, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) as the main products. Incomplete combustion may also produce carbon monoxide (CO) and soot (carbon particles).
The reactants of a complete combustion reaction are usually a hydrocarbon fuel (like methane, propane, or gasoline) and oxygen from the air. The products formed are carbon dioxide and water vapor.
When oxygen reacts with carbon monoxide, it forms carbon dioxide. This reaction releases energy and is often used in combustion processes. Carbon monoxide is oxidized to carbon dioxide in the presence of excess oxygen.
Carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide are formed when carbon disulfide vapor is burned in excess oxygen.
True
When methane is burned in plenty of oxygen, it forms carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) as the main products of the combustion reaction.
When methane (CH4) is burned in excess oxygen, it forms carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The balanced chemical equation is: CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O From the equation, we see that 1 mole of methane produces 1 mole of carbon dioxide. Therefore, 14 moles of methane will produce 14 moles of carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the compound formed by oxygen and carbon.
The compound formed by monoxide and oxygen is dioxide. For example, carbon monoxide combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

Water (H2O) - formed by covalent bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Methane (CH4) - composed of covalent bonds between carbon and hydrogen atoms. Carbon dioxide (CO2) - consists of covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen atoms.
The reaction between methane and oxygen is exothermic, meaning it releases energy in the form of heat. This is because the bonds formed in the products (water and carbon dioxide) are stronger than the bonds in the reactants (methane and oxygen), resulting in a release of energy.
Carbon dioxide
The major product of Carbon burning in Oxygen is Carbon Dioxide (CO2), but some Carbon Monoxide (CO) can be formed depending how much Oxygen is present.
The reactants when methane burns in oxygen are methane and oxygen. The products are CO2, water and heat about 890 Kj/mole is given out. The equation is : CH4(g) + 2O2 _______> CO2 + 2H2O + Heat (-890 Kj/mole) When one mole of methane gas reacts with (burns in) 2 moles of oxygen gas we get 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water and 890 Kilo joules of heat is released. This reaction is exothermic as heat is released and a combustion reaction as methane gas is burned in free supply oxygen not limited supply otherwise carbon monoxide (CO) will be formed. Hope that helped you out. :-D
