Percentage of hydrogen in methane is 25%. Percentage of hydrogen = mass of hydrogen/mass of methane x 100 mass of hydrogen = 1 x 4= 4 and mass of carbon = 12. Since methane has 4 hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom therefore mass of methane = 16 Percentage of hydrogen = 4/16 x 100 =25

Does water and methane contain hydrogen?
No, methane has no polar hydrogen atoms to create hydrogen bonds.
How many moles of hydrogen are present in 3 moles of methane?
Methane (CH4) has four atoms of hydrogen per molecule. If there are 3 moles of methane, then there are 12 moles of hydrogen.
Is methane an atom?
Methane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4.
How many grams of hydrogen are there in 16 grams of methane gas?
First you need atomic masses. Then you need to add them up to find the molecular mass of methane (CH4).Carbon = 12.0 gramsHydrogen = 1.0×4 = 4.0 grams--------------------------------------Methane = 16.0 gramsNow that you know the total mass, you can figure out how much of the compound is actually hydrogen (by percent). So you take the mass of hydrogen and divide it by the total mass of methane.4.0 ÷ 16.0 = .25 = 25% of methane is hydrogenNow we take the 16 grams and figure out how much of that 16 grams is hydrogen. We know that 25% of it is hydrogen, so take one-fourth of 16 to get 4. But sometimes the numbers aren't as easy and you have to multiply them out.25% of 16 = .25 × 16 = 4 grams hydrogen
What does the letters C and H stand for in methane?
Carbon and hydrogen. Methane has the chemical formula CH4, which means a single molecule of methane contains one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms.
What is Neptuns composition?
The composition of Neptune's atmosphere is 80 percent hydrogen, 19 percent helium and 1 percent methane. In addition, there are trace amounts of ethane and hydrogen deuteride.
What Is In Neptune's Layers?
