Natural gas is esetially methane (CH4). When one volume of methane burns it produces one volume of CO2. From the formulae it is possible to calculate that one kilogram of methane burns to produce a bit more than 3 kg of carbon dioxide.
Aside from the machinery used to compress the gas and the energy used to drive that machinery, essentially no CO2 is produced. Natural gas at the well head is at high pressure, in order to liquefy it it needs to be compressed to about 50 atmospheres and cooled by running it through condensers to release the heat of compression. To maintain the liquid form in a storage tank a little methane is released from the tank thus cooling it to a stable temperature by evaporative cooling.

Animals produce co2 and plants produce o2 and co2
75 m3 of natural gas.
Appliances don't exactly produce carbon dioxide (CO2), but they are responsible for CO2 emissions. Appliances run on electricity, and most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This burning emits CO2, a greenhouse gas that is causing global warming.
Yes, natural gas, methane, is one of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which, when burnt, releases carbon dioxide (CO2). It is also a greenhouse gas in its own right.

"How do natural gas stations produce electricity?
CH4 --> CO2 is a 1 to 1 reaction (C-balanced) when burning with oxygen. So 1 mole CH4 --> 1 mole CO2 So 1 Litere CH4 --> 1 Liter CO2 So 16 grams CH4 --> 44 grams CO2

co2
Just about any carbon-containing compound will produce CO2 when burned in the presence of oxygen. This would include wood, coal, oil, natural gas, organic matter, etc etc
