Answer:
CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O
Explanation:
CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O is the only reaction where an element (oxygen) undergoes a change in oxidation state. In this reaction oxygen changes disproportionately to O⁻². That is ...
O₂ → CO₂ + 4e⁻ ==> oxidation
<u>O₂ + 4e⁻ → H₂O ==> reduction </u>
2O₂ + 4e⁻ → CO₂ + H₂O + 4e⁻ ==> Net oxidation-reduction
=> 4e⁻ gained by one mole O₂ in formation of CO₂ = 4e⁻ lost by the other mole O₂ in forming H₂O.
Then...
Including CH₄ (whose elements do not undergo changes in oxidation states) requires doubling reaction to balance by mass thus giving ...
2CH₄ + 2O₂ + 8e⁻ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O + 8e⁻
Cancelling 8 reduction electrons on left with 8 oxidation electrons on right gives...
2CH₄ + 2O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O

Explanation:
I'm not that sure plz tell me if this is right
Answer:
The final volume 
Explanation:
between work ( w), pressure ( P ) and volume ( V ) is the following:
w=−PΔV
where,
ΔV=V2−V1
It was stated that the gas is expanding, then the work is done by the system and it is of a negative value .
Note that work, should be expressed in 1L⋅atm=101.3J
