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

  • Natural gas is a mixture of hydrocarbons.
    • Methane is around 98% of the natural gas mixture.
    • Natural gas is widely used as a fuel and a raw material.
    • They 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.
