Question

what is methane? draw its electronic dot structure name the type of bonds formed in this compound such compounds
1. poor conductors of electricity
2. have low melting and boiling points what happens when this compounds burns in oxygen?​

Answer 1

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\bf{AnsWer:-}}}}$

Methane:-

Methane is a saturated carbon compound. Its molecule is Formed by covalent bond of 1 atom of carbon with 4 atom of hydrogen. It belongs to Alkane group having chemical formula CH4.

★ It forms Covalent Bonds.

★ These compound do not contains ions so they are poor conductor of electricity.

★ Because of weak inter molecular force of attraction they have low melting and boiling points as compared to ionic bonds

Reaction with oxygen:-

★ When methane burns in air it forms Carbon dioxide and water with the release of energy.

${\sf{CH_{4}+2O_{2}----CO_{2}+2H_{2}O+energy}}$

Answer 2

methane is a saturated carbon compound.its molecules is formed by covalent bone of 1 atom of carbon with 4 atom of hydrogen.it belongs to alken group having chemical formula ch4

** it forms covalent bone!

**these compound ok ji do not contain ions so they are poor conductor of electricity.

**because of weak inter molecular force of attraction they have low melting and boiling points as compared to ionic bonds

Reaction With Oxygen:-

**when methane Burns in air it form of carbon dioxides and water with the realized the energy..

$ch ^{4} + 2o_{2} ............ co_{2} + 2h_{2} + energy$
