Question

Explain briefly the thermochemical equation: CH4+O2+CO2—>CO2+H2O

Answer 1

Explanation:

The equation tells us that 1 mol of methane combines with 2 mol of oxygen to produce 1 mol of carbon dioxide and 2 mol of water. In the process, 890.4 kJ is released and so it is written as a product of the reaction. A thermochemical equation is a chemical equation that includes the enthalpy change of the reaction.
