Methane, ethane, and propane are used primarily as fuels; they are, in decreasing order, the most common constituents of natural gas. Propene, like most other unsaturated hydrocarbons, can be used as a fuel, but generally is not, because it is more economically valuable as a starting material for making more valuable products such as iso-propyl alcohol.

What separation technique is used to separate methane from a mixture of gases methane and ethane?
The separation technique commonly used to separate methane from a mixture of methane and ethane is cryogenic distillation. This method exploits the differences in boiling points of the gases; methane has a lower boiling point (-161.5 °C) compared to ethane (-88.6 °C). By cooling the mixture to very low temperatures, methane can be condensed and separated from ethane. This technique is effective for purifying natural gas and other hydrocarbon mixtures.

What are examples of hydrocarbons?
Examples of hydrocarbons include methane (CH4), ethane (C2H6), propane (C3H8), butane (C4H10), and hexane (C6H14). These compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms bonded together and can be found in natural gas, gasoline, and other fossil fuels.
What is the common name of propene?

How Methane will convert Into ethane?
this is not possible yet..scientists have discovered an enzyme that can convert ethane to methane..however, if u take indirect route ..then its possible..
