This reaction is irreversible. The reactants are entirely converted into reaction products. Combustion of methane is a typical example of an irreversible reaction.

Answer:

Explanation:

When discussing equilibrium of a chemical reaction, the reaction <u>must be a reversible reaction</u> which can be altered to either produce more of reactants or more of the products. Also, the enthalpy change of the reaction determines whether the forward reaction/backward reaction is endothermic or exothermic.

Below is the equation for the combustion of methane

CH₄ + 2O₂ ⇒ CO₂ + 2H₂O

The combustion of methane is an irreversible reaction (meaning nothing can be done to it to get more reactants) which will give off heat (exothermic reaction). hence, the equilibrium expression is not needed here as the type of reaction it is gives us all the information we need to know already.

If an atom has an atomic number of 6 and and abdomens mass of 12 how many electrons does it have
Basile [38]
Atomic number refers to the proton number of the atom itself. Number of electrons in an atom (an atom that is not reacted with any other molecules / Just the atom alone), is the same as the number of protons, because each electron has 1 negative charge, and each proton 1 positive charge, where they cancel out on each other to become a neutral charge.

So, when atomic number is 6, proton number is also 6, and number of electrons will also be 6 in that atom.

Hope this helps! :)

_________ is a systematic method of naming chemical compounds. This creates an unambiguous and consistent name for any chemical
Vlada [557]

Answer: IUPAC NOMENCLATURE

Explanation:

IUPAC stands for International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. They devised a systematic method for naming compounds in order to create a uniform global unambiguous system of nomenclature hence making it easier for researchers to share information more freely without the hindrance of reporting the same compound using different names in different parts of the world thus creating confusion in chemical literature.
