Answer:
The balanced equation is.
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
Explanation:
CH₄ + O₂ --> CO₂ + H₂O
You have 4 H in reactant side. In order to balance the H, you add 2 in water, in product side.
Now, you unbalanced the O, because you have 2 O from CO₂ and 2 O from water. As you have 4 O in total, you add a 2 in the O₂ in the reactant side. C is balanced because you have 1 C on each side

Explanation:
[tex]\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 + H_2O[/tex]
Balancing the Hydrogen atoms on the right side,
[tex]\sf CH_4+ O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O[/tex]
Balancing the Oxygen atoms on the left side,
[tex]\sf CH_4+ 2O_2 \Rightarrow CO_2 +2 H_2O[/tex]
[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
