Answer:

methane

The largest component of natural gas is methane, a compound with one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms (CH4). Natural gas also contains smaller amounts of natural gas liquids (NGL, which are also hydrocarbon gas liquids), and nonhydrocarbon gases, such as carbon dioxide and water vapor.

HEYA, BUDDY !!

: \impliesThe basic chemical composition of natural gas essentially contains methane and ethane. Apart from that it also contains propane, butane, oxygen, hydrogen, penance, and many other gases in small composition.

As We know that, the Natural gases are mixtures of hydrocarbons and they are used for the fuel and raw material for the production of different materials. Natural gas is widely used as a fuel and a raw material. It contains mainly methane, ethane, propane, butane and so on. Some studies show that less amount of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide are also present in natural gases.

Know more, Natural gases are fossil energy sources that were generated years ago beneath the earth’s surface. These natural gasses contain natural gas liquids and non-hydrocarbon gases. Millions of years ago, the animals, trees, aquatic organisms formed a layer and were buried under sand. These carbon and hydrogen rich materials turned into coal, petroleum products and natural gases due to high pressure and heat.

→ The Conventional natural gas found in the spaces between layers of overlying rocks. Unconventional natural gases are recovered from the tiny pores of sand stone and sedimentary rocks. Associated natural gases found with the crude oil. Coalbed methane is a type of natural gas found in coal fields. Geologists use seismic surveys and find the right places to drill natural gases and oil wells.
