Now it's time to make dinner. On the menu tonight are fried chicken, green beans and cornbread. (5) The first thing you need to do is turn on the burners so that you can fry the chicken and boil the water for green beans. You have a natural-gas (methane, CH4) stove. When you ignite a natural gas stove, the methane reacts with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. The reaction is CH4 + O2 ----> CO2 + H2O. Explain what type of reaction this is.

Answer:

Complete combustion

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction that occurs when methane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor.

CH₄ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

The reaction between an organic compound with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water vapor is known as complete combustion. If instead of carbon dioxide, the product were carbon monoxide or carbon, the combustion would be incomplete.
