Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This reaction is a combustion reaction because it involves the burning of methane (CH4) in the presence of oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). It is also an oxidation-reduction reaction because there is a transfer of electrons, with carbon being oxidized and oxygen being reduced.
