The gas Methane is not Toxic , however it is highly flammable and can form many explosive mixtures with air. It's violently reactive with oxidizers, halogens, and some halogen-containing compounds. Methane is also an asphyxiant and may displace oxygen in an enclosed space. Asphyxia may result if the oxygen concentration is reduced to below 19.5% by displacement. When structures are built on or near landfills, methane off-gas can penetrate the buildings' interiors and expose occupants to significant levels of methane.
Methane is neither "good" or "bad." "Good" and "bad" are human constructs. It is good to have methane in your compost heap, and bad to have too much methane in your house (KABOOM!)
However, the Earth's ambient air always contains a certain amount of methane. Methane, by the way is a nontoxic odorless gas (contrary to common belief).
Methane gas is not bad: it is an important fossil fuel and also a raw material for the chemical industry:
- burning of methane release carbon dioxide and possible carbon monoxide
- methane (and CO2) are gases with greenhouse effects
- methane may explode in catastrophic accidents
Methane is not bad for you. It is basically 'cow farts.'
Methane is non-toxic, but it it extremely flammable and can be explosive in the right concentration in air. If methane displaces enough of the air in a room, it can cause death by asphyxia.
In large quanities, yes. It is a greenhouse gas, so it contributes to global warming.
no : )
Yes, it is even more potent as 'earth warming gas' than carbon dioxide
Yes.
methane is a greenhouse gas .. it locks the sun's energy in the atmosphere
it can give out a very toxic gas called methane
Methane is obviously a gas and not an alloy.
No. methane is the simplest hydrocarbon and not a noble gas.
Negative. Natural gas (methane) is a dangerous greenhouse gas causing global warming and climate change. Burning it releases carbon dioxide, another powerful greenhouse gas. There is no way natural gas is positive for the environment.
The gas in a cow's fart is mostly methane which is a 'greenhouse gas'. So it's bad for the environment.
Yes, they are composed of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas.
methane gas is produced it very bad for the environment that why u recycle and reuse stuff
methane gas is produced it very bad for the environment that why u recycle and reuse stuff
methane gas is produced it very bad for the environment that why u recycle and reuse stuff
yes it is
Cattle and other ruminants produce much more methane in their intestinal gases than humans as the intestinal bacteria digest cellulose. (Most of the gas comes out of the cow's mouth!) Methane is a greenhouse gas and bad for the environment.
Generally Bad. Methane is not toxic; however, it is extremely flammable and may form explosive mixtures with air. Methane is violently reactive with oxidizers, halogens, and some halogen-containing compounds. Methane is also an asphyxiant and may displace oxygen in an enclosed space.
they release methane gas and co2
methane is a greenhouse gas .. it locks the sun's energy in the atmosphere
It is a green house gas, which cause global warming.
it can give out a very toxic gas called methane
