Which of the following reactions of methane is incomplete combustion:

A

`2CH_4+O_2 overset"Cu/523 K / 100 atm"to 2CH_3OH`

B

`CH_4+O_2 overset(Mo_2O_3)to HCHO+H_2O`

C

`CH_4+O_2 to C(s) + 2H_2O (l)`

D

`CH_4+2O_2 to CO_2 (s) + 2H_2O (l)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Complete combustion of `CH_4` gives `CO_2` and `H_2O` . Therefore , reaction (c ) in which `CH_4` is converted into C and `H_2O` is an incomplete combustion reaction.
