CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
1. Calculating the number of CO2 molecules:
From the balanced chemical equation, we see that for every 1 molecule of CH4, 1 molecule of CO2 is produced. Therefore, for 4 molecules of CH4, we can produce 4 molecules of CO2.
Answer: 4 molecules of CO2 can be made.
2. Calculating the number of H2O molecules:
From the balanced chemical equation, we see that for every 1 molecule of CH4, 2 molecules of H2O are produced. Therefore, for 4 molecules of CH4, we can produce 8 molecules of H2O.
Answer: 8 molecules of H2O can be made.
