if i put the right answer it bring me the wrong answer on the wikianswer
5.75 moles of water per mole of methane.
Methane hydrate can be found in oceans where the temperature is cold enough for this substance to form. It is essentially methane gas trapped in ice in what cjemists call a clathrate. There is a danger some climatologists say that the warming of the ocean will cause methane hydrate to release the trapped methane gas, which because it is a potent greenhouse gas would speed up global warming.
Methane is a gas at standard temperature and pressure, also at room temperature unless the room in question is very cold!
If you are asking how much pressure you would have to compress methane to in order to liquify it at room temperature, the answer is that methane won't liquify at room temperature. The critical temperature for methane is -87.2 degrees centigrade. Above that temperature it will not liquify no matter how much pressure you apply. At -82.7 degrees centigrade it would take a pressure of 45.96 bar to get it to liquify. See: http://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/liquids/critical.html
beacuse it is becaiuse its called methane and starts with a M and ends with E :)
Methane is not a metal. It is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula CH4.
Methane hydrate is a combination of methane (CH4) and water (H2O).

no. renewable

Methane Hydrate is methane gas which has been frozen into water ice. Since it is a mixture of substances, and not an individual chemical, it does not have a chemical symbol. However, it can be represented by the chemical symbols of the compounds which make it up - Water, which is H2O, and Methane, which is CH4.

As Methane Hydrants form at low temperature and at high pressure, they can be found on the seabed and in arctic perma-frost.
true.

You're probably thinking of methane hydrate-clathrate.

Methane hydrate, also called methane clathrate, or methane ice, is a compound containing large amounts of the natural gas methane in a water crystal form, rather like ice. It is found on the sea bed, under layers of sediment.The problems with harvesting it are many.Drilling rigs have to be able to reach around 500 metres (1600 feet) to the ocean floor, then usually more than double that depth to reach the clathrate. This is difficult.It is mostly found offshore, where the continental shelf starts to slope deeply down. Installing and controlling pipelines here is extremely difficult.Sloping seabeds are often unstable, and removing the stabilizing clathrate can lead to landslides. There is evidence of a huge landslide off Norway 8000 years ago which caused a 25 metre tsunami in Norway and Scotland. Scientists believe an unstable clathrate deposit nearby decomposed from temperature and pressure changes at the end of the last ice age.The clathrate is under high pressure and low temperature. When it is released it becomes unstable and will leak. Containing it as it rises will be extremely difficult.The biggest problem is that methane is a powerful greenhouse gas that, together with carbon dioxide, is the cause of global warming. Scientists fear that the release and escape of methane from methane clathrate harvesting could trigger a massive warming boost to the earth's atmosphere.
