Combustion of methane
Methane burns in oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water. All four C–H bonds and both O=O bonds break; two C=O and four O–H bonds form.
C.O=O.O=O>>O=C=O.O.O

Formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen
Two hydrogen molecules and one oxygen molecule combine to form two molecules of water. The H–H and O=O bonds break and four new O–H bonds form. The real reaction proceeds through a radical chain mechanism; the animation shows only the overall change in connectivity.

Reading these records
Everything on a record page came from the source that published it. Conditions the source did not state are shown as not recorded, and no typical value is substituted for them. Yields are whatever was measured by whoever ran the experiment.
