The density of LNG is roughly 0.41 to 0.5 kg/L, depending on temperature, pressure and composition. (In comparison water has a density of 1.0 kg/L)
no it's a gas, compressed to around 1% of normal volume. If it was compressed to the liquid state, you'd call it liquified natural gas (LNG).
Natural gas can be in either a gos or liquid form. To create a liquified natural gas, the natural gas needs to be filtered and cooled to -162 degrees C. This compresses the gas to 1/600th its original size. This makes it much easier to transport.
Yes. LPG - (liquified petroleum gas)
They are both Hydrocarbons Natural gas is mainly Methane, one atom of carbon surrounded by Hydrogen, CH3. Liquified Petroleum gas has longer chains of carbon, usually 3/4 Carbons (propane/butane, C3H8/C4H10)
LPG stands for Liquified Petroleum Gas, but is almost always construed as meaning Liquified Propane gas. Propane is an alkane with the chemical formula C3H8.
LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS
Above ground, Natural Gas is collected (LIQUIFIED) ans stored in LNG Tanks.
Oil has the higher BTU rating Depends. If it is Liquified Nat. Gas then it has the higher rating.
liquified natural gas
Underground pipelines and liquified on traincars and trucks.
Liquefied natural gas or LNG is natural gas (predominantly methane, CH4) that has been converted temporarily to liquid form for ease of storage or transport.
no it's a gas, compressed to around 1% of normal volume. If it was compressed to the liquid state, you'd call it liquified natural gas (LNG).

Yes. LPG - (liquified petroleum gas)
Liquified natural gas has about 1/600th of the volume of natural gas at standard temperature and pressure, so 1 m3 of natural gas would be about 0.001666 m3, or 1.67 liters, of LNG.
Cryogenic valves facilitate the transfer of Liquified gas. Space industry, natural gas / petroleum, medical industry, chemicals.
