Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting of methane and commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium.
Natural gas is made up of a mixture of four naturally occurring gases, all of which have different molecular structures. This mixture consists primarily of methane, which makes up 70-90% of natural gas along with ethane, butane and propane.

Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture that mostly consists of methane with different proportions of other higher alkanes, as well as a trace quantity of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulphide, or helium. Because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and explosive, a sulphur stench (similar to rotten eggs) is commonly added to identify leaks early. Over millions of years, layers of decaying plant and animal matter are exposed to extreme heat and pressure under the Earth's surface, resulting in natural gas. The energy that the plants got from the sun is stored in the gas in the form of chemical bonds. Natural gas is classified as a fossil fuel.
