Natural gas has no odour, therefore you can't smell it. A product that goes by the trade name of Mercaptin is added to natural gas to give it an odour so you can get a warning of a leak by smell.
Natural Gas don't have smell but smell is mixed up in it for the protection like the gases used in home or pipline,if they are leaked we can smell them
No one invented it. It is a fossil fuel and a natural resource.
Actually no. Natural gas does not have a smell at all. A smell is added to it when its used for stoves and such.True Natural Gas does not have an odor, before or after combustion. The most common type of natural gas used is propane, in which they mix an additive to give it its tale-tell odor.yesPure natural gas (methane, CH4) is completely odorless. However, for domestic use, odorants are often added so that it is easier to detect a gas leak in your house. I'm not sure if the natural gas that comes out of the ground is pure or not, however, and there may be traces of other gases that do have a smell. The natural gas itself does not. However sour gas contains hydogen sulfide known as H2s and smells like rotten eggs. It is heavier than air and collects is low areas, which you smell when going through an oil field. A heavy dose can be deadly.
you cant really see natural gas just like you cant see wind or air but it there none the less. You can't see it, you can only smell it I think. natural gas is in a vapor form and isn't visible by the human eye. The only you can smell natural gas is because they add a sulfur scent to it for safety! Definitely do the "sniff test" if you're concerned about leaking natural gas!
Natural gas has a smell added so that if there is a leak people will be able to smell it.

The smell in gas is man-made, natural gas is odourless. It is added during the gas manufacturing/refining process so as to be able to detect it (i.e. smell). The chemical is Mercaptan
Yes it is. Natural gas has no smell of its own. Methyl mercaptan is used to add a bad smell to natural gas to warn you if a gas leak should occur.
1. Pure natural gas (CH) doesn't smell. 2. Smell is a chemical property of substances because is caused by specific molecules.
