The correct balanced chemical equation which occur when methane burn in oxygen gas is

CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O +CO2 (answer D)

when methane is burned in presence of oxygen gas it produces carbon(IV) oxide and water and energy,that is 1 mole of CH4 reacted with 2 moles of O2 to form 2 moles of water and 1 mole of CO2 and enegy. This energy make the methane to be used as fuel.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

the new pressure is 2.09 atm

Explanation:

you have to use gay lussac's law so the formula is

p1/t1 = p2/t2

and convert C to Kelvin k=C+273.15

1.72atm/294.15 = p2/358.15

solve for p2 by multiplying 358.15 on both sides

p2=2.09 atm

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer;

The partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

Explanation;

Water is a polar molecule because the electrons are not shared equally, they're closer to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen.

-Normally, the water molecule is a bent shape because of the pair of lone electrons - they repulse each other and exert a compression to the hydrogen atoms at a slight 104º angle. It is a bent molecular geometry that results from tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

-The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104 degrees bond angle. Therefore, the water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs.

Thus, If water were a linear molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker, then the partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.
