Methane reacts with oxygen as shown by the equations I and II below(I) #CH_4#(g) + #2O_2#(g)----->#CO_2#(g)+#2H_2O#(l)(II) #2CH_4(g)#+#3O_2(g)#---->2CO(g)+#4H_2O(l)#Which one of the two reactions represents the complete combustion of methane? Explain.
Answer Text: Reaction I: in this reaction there is production of carbon(iv)oxide (#CO_2#) in which carbon is oxidized to the highest oxidation number.
