The balanced equation for the burning of methane gas in the presence of oxygen is:
CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O
Symbol of state:
CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) -> CO2 (g) + 2H2O (g)
Type of reaction:
This is a combustion reaction.
CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O
Symbol of state:
CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) -> CO2 (g) + 2H2O (g)
Type of reaction:
This is a combustion reaction.

Balanced Equation:
```
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
```
Symbol of State:
All reactants and products are in the gas phase, indicated by the subscript "(g)".
Type of Reaction:
- Combustion reaction: A reaction in which a fuel (CH₄) reacts with oxygen to produce heat and light.
- Exothermic reaction: A reaction that releases heat.
- Oxidation-reduction reaction: A reaction in which one substance is oxidized (CH₄), losing electrons, and another substance is reduced (O₂, gaining electrons).
