Among the following reactions, incomplete combustion of methane is:
1. | 2CH4+O2Cu/523 K/100 atm−−−−−−−−−−−→2CH3OH |
2. | CH4+O2Mo2O3−−−−→HCHO+H2O |
3. | CH4 + O2 → C + 2H2O |
4. | CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O |
The incomplete combustion of methane can result in a slew of partially oxidized products, including COCO, but also methanol, formic acid, formaldehyde, and higher hydrocarbons also.
However,the oxidation of methane to soot is generally given as the following:
