Each carbon atom will react with 4 hydrogen atoms to form methane (
) Since there are 2 hydrogen atoms in a hydrogen molecule (
) then each carbon atom will react with 2 hydrogen molecules. Since there are 22 hydrogen molecules half as many methane molecules will be formed, so 11. Then we can subtract 11 from 34 to find the number of carbon atoms left over.
So in summary, 11 methane molecules will be formed and there will be 23 carbon atoms left over.
So in summary, 11 methane molecules will be formed and there will be 23 carbon atoms left over.
