  1. When methane (CH4) burns it combines with oxygen and forms carbon dioxide and water. Which of the following is the balanced chemical reaction for the burning of methane?
    1. CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
    2. 3 CH4 + 6 O2 → 3 CO2 + 6 H2O
    3. 2 CH4 + 3 O2 → CO2 + 4 H2O
    4. CH4 + 3 O2 → 2 CO2 + 2 H2O
    5. CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O
