Methane occurs naturally under the sea. It also occurs naturally below ground. These two areas are the only two areas where methane occurs in its natural state.

When methane is burned in a lime kiln why are the wast gages carbon dioxide and nitrogen?
the oxygen in the air combines with the methane making carbon dioxide and leaving un reacted nitrogen from the air.
Name two compounds in unpolluted air?
Carbon Dioxide is present in unpolluted air. Methane (animals grazing literally fart this out) is also present and Nitrogen oxides formed when lighting strikes. The electrical discharge is high enough to cause oxygen and nitrogen to combine. It is basically a natural fertilizer In unpolluted air these compounds are present at levels of about 390 parts per million, 1.8 parts per million, and 1 part per billion respectively. The most abundant and most important compound in unpolluted air is ... water vapour -- present at levels which vary between about 0.1% and 5%, depending on temperature and humidity.
What does the increase of carbon dioxide in the air mean?
It means that there is more carbon dioxide (unbreathable air) gets in to are air
Is carbon dioxide air pollution why?
Carbon dioxide is not an air pollutant. However excessive carbon dioxide release into the atmosphere is a pollutant as it contributes to acid rain
Does respiration add carbon dioxide to the air?
Yes, respiration does add carbon dioxide to the air
How is carbon dioxide produced naturally?
Carbon Dioxide is produced naturally by the exhalation of air in humans beings and animals.
When methane is burned in a lime kiln why are the wast gages carbon dioxide and nitrogen?
the oxygen in the air combines with the methane making carbon dioxide and leaving un reacted nitrogen from the air.
What gas to humans release into the air?
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) for the most part, but the components of the original air that was inhaled are still present, although the O2 (oxygen) component will be reduced.
What is found in the air when methane is burnt?
Mostly carbon dioxide & water vapor.
What chemical do human gases have?
air, methane, carbon dioxide, sulfur containing gases
What hydrocarbon in air?
methane released from volcanic eruptions, swamps etc.
Do your farts contain carbon dioxide?
No. They are mostly methane, with a little regular air, and water vapor. Methane, of course, is also a greenhouse gas, as is carbon dioxide.
Do cars pollute the air or people?
Both. Cars emit Hydrocarbons + Nitrogen Oxides + Carbon Dioxide + Carbon Monoxide. People emit Methane and Carbon Dioxide.
What is the major air pollutant found in coal?
The major air pollutants found in coal are carbon dioxide and methane.
4 pollutants that cause air pollution?
1.Methane 2.Chlorofluorocarbon 3.Carbon dioxide 4.Nitrogen dioxide 5.Carbon monoxide 6.Sulfur dioxide
How could trucks cause pollution in the air?
They emit horrific greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide & methane that pollute the air.
What is the word equation for methane burning in the air?
The reactants are methane CH4 and oxygen O2 and the products are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O. CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O
