Answer:

Balanced chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂  →  2H₂O + CO₂

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

CH₄ + O₂  →  H₂O + CO₂

Balanced chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂  →  2H₂O + CO₂

Step one:

CH₄ + O₂  →  H₂O + CO₂

C  = 1                          C = 1

H  =  4                        H = 2

O  = 2                         O = 3

Step 2:

CH₄ + 2O₂  →  H₂O + CO₂

C  = 1                          C = 1

H  =  4                        H = 2

O  = 4                         O = 3

Step 3:

CH₄ + 2O₂  →  2H₂O + CO₂

C  = 1                          C = 1

H  =  4                        H = 4

O  = 4                         O = 4

Answer:

\huge \boxed{\mathrm{CH_4+ 2O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O}}

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Explanation:

\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 + H_2O

Balancing the Hydrogen atoms on the right side,

\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O

Balancing the Oxygen atoms on the left side,

\sf CH_4+ 2O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Papessa [141]
Since the sun is the main source of evaporation on earth's surface, then the answer should be Solar since solar refers to the sun. It's usually not visible though because it mostly occurs over oceans where it is not seen from the shores.
