The natural gas supplied by your utility company is almost pure methane. This is a chemical compound of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms.
The stuff that comes out of a natural gas well is a mixture of hydrocarbons (mainly methane, ethane, propane, and butane) and impurities. All of the stuff besides methane is separated out (and something smelly like mercaptan added in) before the natural gas is sold to consumers.
