Methane burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. which of the tollowing represents a preliminary, unbalanced equation with the correct chemical formulas?

So first we need to know what the formulas are:

Methane:

Oxygen:

Carbon Dioxide:

Water:

So then we follow the equation as specified in the question. Note that it does not need to be balanced, as the question states it wants the unbalanced equation:

→

This is the preliminary, unbalanced equation with the correct chemical formulas.

answer

fusion: the energy source of stars. the energy released from the collapse of the gas into a protostar causes the center of the protostar to become extremely hot. when the core is hot enough, nuclear fusion commences. fusion is the process where two hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom, releasing energy.
