Is carbon dioxide a natural gas?
Yes, carbon dioxide can be a natural gas.
Is natural gas carbon monoxide?
Natural gas does not contain carbon monoxide. It contains a large amount of methane. It may also contain other gases. At one time it was frequently burned inside houses. It is now usually burned in furnaces since it may contain Radon, a radioactive gas. Radon can cause cancer. Carbon monoxide is results in the process of making gas from coal. By using water while burning cole, the coal burns at a lower temperature producing coal gas and coke. This coke is not the stuff you drink but a form of carbon used to turn iron ore into iron. Coal gas is then burned to produce heat. The carbon monoxide turns into carbon dioxide. At one time it was used to heat homes. That was replaced by natural gas which does not contain poison.
How does the atmosphere contain carbon?
The atmosphere contains carbon in the form of carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases. Levels of this gas are increasing in the atmosphere since we began burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Is natural gas an inert gas?
No, natural gas is a flammable hydro-carbon based gas.
What is the equation when natural gas produces carbon monxide and water?
natural gas + heat ---> carbon monoxide + water
What elements does natural gas contain?
Carbon and hydrogen.
Coal petroleum and natural gas all contain?
Fossil Fuels
Chemical composition of natural gas?
Pure natural gas is methane, CH4. But in practice natural gas contain also traces of helium, carbon dioxide, water, sulfur compounds and a variety of hydrocarbons.
Is carbon dioxide a natural gas?
Yes, carbon dioxide can be a natural gas.

How is methane found in natural gas Same as gasoline?
Both contain hydrogen and carbon, and both can be burned as fuel.
How does the atmosphere contain carbon?
The atmosphere contains carbon in the form of carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases. Levels of this gas are increasing in the atmosphere since we began burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Is a mineral organic?
A Mineral can be either organic or inorganic. Organic minerals contain carbon. Ex coal petroleum natural gas. Inorganic minerals do not contain carbon. Ex limestone, mica etc.
Is natural gas an inert gas?
No, natural gas is a flammable hydro-carbon based gas.
Does a natural gas leak set off carbon monoxide alarm?
It should not as natural gas is not carbon monoxide.
Is carbon monoxide the same as natural gas?
No. Natural gas is mainly methane (CH4). Carbon monoxide is CO.
What is the equation when natural gas produces carbon monxide and water?
natural gas + heat ---> carbon monoxide + water
