About this exercise type...
What species is responsible for the inital decomposition of the CH4 molecule? 
This same species is not only consumed at the start of the CH4 decomposition sequence but is also produced in the final step. From the reaction of what two species is it produced?  
Three species are produced by the CH4 decomposition sequence. One of these is H2O. What are the other two? 
In addition to CH4, the decomposition sequence consumes two other reactants. What are these? 
Large scale combustion processes such as biomass burning not only produce the hydrocarbons for this decomposition process they also produce two significant species directly. Which two? 
Biomass burning and lightning both produce significant quantities of a particular species directly. Which species? 
What form of NOx has an important catalytic role in the CH4 decomposition sequence?
