Complete the following Chemical reactions.

1. ........+.......→ CO₂ + 2H₂O + Heat

2. ...........+.........→ CH₃Cl + HCl

3. 2 NaOH + CO₂→........+........

1. CH₄ + 2O₂→ CO₂ + 2H₂O + heat

Explanation:

When methane (CH₄) is burnt in the presence of oxygen to form evolve a bluish flame. In the above reaction, the methane burns completely.

2. CH₄ + Cl₂→ CH₃Cl + HCl

Explanation:

Methane(CH₄) and chlorine(Cl₂) gases react with each other in presence of UV light and form mainly methyl chloride (chloromethane – CH₃Cl) and hydrogen chloride. This reaction is called chlorination of methane.

3. 2NaOH + CO₂→ Na₂CO₃ + H₂O

Explanation: When aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is passed through carbon dioxide, it forms sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃)
