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
To answer the questions,
(1) Activation energy is the amount of energy that is needed for the reaction to proceed, converting the reactant to products. The answer is letter B.
(2) The rate of chemical reaction normally increases as the reactant concentration is increased. The answer is letter C.
