Not sure about chemical? But there are highly sensitivity alarm metres for detecting the leakage of liquid petroleum gas (LPG, butane, propane etc), and natural gas. One method I once used to find a leaking joint on a gas cooker was to apply washing-up liquid round the joints until a joint bubbling up pin-pointed the leak.
A chemical called Ethyl Mercaptan is added to LPG to give it a distinct odor, making it easy to detect leaks. This pungent smell is similar to that of rotten eggs, making any leak quickly noticeable to users.
Mercaptan, a sulfur-containing compound, is mixed with LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) to give it a distinctive odor for leak detection. This odor is often described as similar to rotten eggs and allows individuals to easily detect gas leaks.
Besides electronic detectors, there are 2 common means. The first is smell. A chemical- mercaptan- is added to LPG that gives it a horrible smell. The second is bubbles. Connections in piping can be checked for leaks with a soap solution. If it is leaking, it makes bubbles at the point of the leak.
A chemical called Ethyl Mercaptan is added to LPG to give it a distinct odor. This odor acts as a warning sign in case of a leak, allowing people to detect gas leaks more easily.
ethanithiol ( IUPAC) ethyl mercaptan is added in lpg to detect leakage by the odour.
Ethyl Mercaptane is C2H5SH. It is a sulphur containing organic compound. It is added into LPG so as to detect any leakage of LPG. The Pungent smell that comes from LPG is tht of ethyl mercaptane,otherwise LPG is an odourless gas.

The property of gas that helps us detect the leakage of LPG gas is its odor. LPG gas is odorless, but a foul-smelling odorant is added to it so that any leakage can be detected by smell. This distinctive smell alerts individuals to the presence of the gas and helps prevent accidents.

Natural gas is odourless. Gas for domestic use - has chemicals added to create a smell, so leaks can be detected.
The property of gases that helps in detecting leakage of LPG gas is their odor. LPG gas is usually odorless, but a strong-smelling odorant is added to help detect leaks. This distinctive smell alerts individuals to the presence of gas in the event of a leak.

Yes, Liquified Petroleum Gas is a Gas. It is a mixture of butane and propane. Also ethyl mercaptan is added to LPG to detect the gas leakage.
