What is natural gas a mixture of?
It's a mixture of hydrogen, carbon and other 'trace' elements. Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium. All is removed from the methane before it is used. We have from 250-100 years of natural gas left depending of the amount of usage.

What is the decomposing chemical compound in the egg that is the source of the rotten smell?

What are gases in Jupiter's atmosphere?
Mainly hydrogen and helium, with trace amounts of ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methane, and water. In many ways the atmosphere of Jupiter is similar to the atmosphere of a star.
What is the effect of hydrogen sulfide in your body?
Your body naturally produces hydrogen sulfide when you ingest meat. What is does in the body is control body temperature, long term memory, it causes flatulence. It acts as a vasodilator and it also affects your metabolism.
Has Neptune have an atmosephere?
Neptune has a gaseous atmosphere consisting mostly of hydrogen and nitrogen with a small amount (about 3%) of methane. Methane molecules, made up of hydrogen and carbon, form clouds in the upper atmosphere. There is also evidence of dense clouds of hydrogen sulfide particles in the lower atmosphere.
What chemical smells like farts?
There is a gas in it called methane, that is what makes it smell :)
Which gases are compounds and elements?
Gaseous compounds: ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), methane (CH4) etc.Gaseous elements: xenon (Xe), hydrogen (H), argon (Ar) etc.
Will hydrogen sulfide explode?
Yes. Hydrogen sulfide is extremely flammable.
What is hydrogen sulfide symbol?
The chemical formula for hydrogen sulfide is H2S.
