The natural gas is composed of methane, butane, propane and a small amount of iso-Butane.

These all are organic compound (alkanes) and burn in presence of the oxygen to give carbon dioxide. The burning of the alkanes is type of exothermic reaction, which means they liberate heat energy on reaction. The enrgy is released due to the braking of the bond and the formation of the new bonds.

Hence, it can be concluded the chemical taking place at the time of burning of these gases gives off the energy.

<span>. Estuaries have been called the "nurseries of the sea" because the protected environment and abundant food provide an ideal location for fish and shellfish to reproduce. Most commercially important fish species spend some part of their life cycle in estuaries. Besides fish, many species of birds depend on estuaries for food and nesting areas. Migratory birds use estuaries as stopover points for resting and feeding before continuing their journey. Marine mammals also use estuaries as feeding grounds and nurseries.</span>
