When looking to power your equipment or vehicle with natural gas, the first question that springs to mind is: what is natural gas? A lot of people use natural gas in their homes for cooking and heating, but they don’t really give it some thought. So, let’s see what natural gas is and how it’s different from other forms of fossil fuels like oil and coal.

Natural Gas is a fossil fuel that exist in a gaseous state and is composed mainly of methane (CH4) a small percentage of other hydrocarbons (e.g. ethane). The use of natural gas is becoming more and more popular as it can be used with commercial, industrial, electric power generation and residential applications.

What is the proper solution to the following equation? Answer with correct significant figures. (23.1 + 5.61 + 1.008) × 7.6134 ×

OleMash [197]

(23.1 + 5.61 + 1.008) × 7.6134 × 8.431

= 29.718 × 7.6134 × 8.431

=1907.55608

The equation is solved in the manner that the term in the bracket is added first then mutiplication is done as according to Bodmas rule, if an equation contains brackets that need to be solved first then other operation that is division,multiplication, addition and subtraction are performed from left to right .

BASED ON THE INFORMATION BELOW. CALCULATE THE MASS FOR ONE OF THESE ATOMS:

stepladder [879]

C = 12 g

O = 16 g

H = 1 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Conservation of mass stated that

<em>In a closed system, the masses before and after the reaction are the same </em>

we can calculate the mass of each atom in the compound :

O in O₂ :

mass O₂ = 32

mass O = 32 : 2 = 16 g

H in H₂O

mass H₂O = 18

mass 2.H + mass O = 18

mass 2.H + 16 = 18

mass 2.H=2

mass H = 1 g

C in CH₄

mass CH₄ = 16

mass C + mass 4.H = 16

mass C + 4.1=16

mass C = 12 g

or we can use formula :

Mass of a single C :

$\tt =\dfrac{Ar~C}{MW~CO_2}\times mass~CO_2\\\\=\dfrac{12}{44}\times 44=12$
