Question

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

Balance this chemical equation.
State what type of chemical reaction this is.
Discuss how your balanced chemical equation agrees with the law of conservation of mass.

PLEASE HELP?

Answer 1

write down how many atoms you have on both sides..

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

Left Right
C= 1 C=1
O=2 O=3
H=4 H=2

since you have 1 carbon on both sides, you don't need to touch that:

1 CH4 + x O2 → 1 CO2 + y H2O

now it's all about multiplication, use a calculator.
