Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 103AE
Burning methane in oxygen can produce three different carbon-containing products: soot (very fine particles of graphite), CO(g), and CO2(g). (a) Write three balanced equations for the reaction of methane gas with oxygen to producethese three products. In each case assume that is the only other product. (b) Determine the standard enthalpies forthe reactions in part (a). (c) Why, when the oxygen supplyis adequate. is CO2(g) the predominant carbon—containing product of the combustion of methane?
