Q:

What is the primary component of natural gas?

A) Nitrogen B) Ethane
C) Propane D) Methane
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Methane

Explanation:

Natural gas is primarily composed of methane, but also contains ethane, propane, and heavier hydrocarbons.

 

Natural gas is a colorless, tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic gas. Because it is odorless, mercaptan is added to the natural gas, in very small amounts to give the gas a distinctive smell of rotten eggs. This strong smell can alert you of a potential gas leak.

 

It also contains small amounts of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and trace amounts of water.
