Here is a chemical equation:

CH3 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

• Balance this chemical equation.
• State what type of chemical reaction this is.
• What will accompany the products as a result of this reaction?
• Discuss how your balanced chemical equation agrees with the law of conservation of mass.
I need an answer as soon as possible please!! Semester is almost over.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The balance equation is 4CH3+7O2=4CO2+6H2O

Explanation:

The given reaction belongs to redox reaction because in this reaction CH3 is getting oxidized to form carbon dioxide(CO2) and oxygen is getting reduced to generate water(H2O).

    Both oxidation and reduction will accompany the product.

I have balanced the reaction by equaling the atoms of each element on both sides(reactant side and product side).
