Write the balanced reaction for the methanol cannon demo that includes their Lewis structures . The reaction is the combustion of methanol (CH3OH). Include the states (s, l, g) in your balanced equation as well.

The reaction is the combustion of methanol (CH3OH).

Write the balanced chemical equation.

Draw Lewis structures for each structure.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of methane is shown below:

Lewis structures of the given molecules are shown below:

what is the question here. i think you messed up.

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
