Natural gas is compressed when it is cooled. When cooled to a temperature of -162 Degrees, it becomes liquid.
Natural gas is easier and more cost-effective to transport in liquid form, known as liquefied natural gas (LNG), because it takes up significantly less space compared to its gaseous state. By liquefying natural gas, it can be transported more efficiently over long distances in specialized LNG tankers by sea or trucks on roads. Additionally, LNG has a lower risk of explosion compared to transporting natural gas in its gaseous form through pipelines.
Yes, methane is a type of natural gas. It is a hydrocarbon gas that is the primary component of natural gas found in the earth's crust. Methane is released during the production and extraction of natural gas.
It is called compression when a gas is squeezed into a smaller space, increasing its pressure and decreasing its volume.
Natural gas in its normal form is a gas. When natural gas is cooled to a temperature of -162 degrees C, it is compressed into a liquid is is 1/600th its original size. Liquefied natural gas is much easier to transport then compressed natural gas.
Methane makes up about 90% of natural gas.
What are you trying to do? Sounds dangerous, I don't advise doing this.
yes you can.
Compress. They tend to occupy a nearly fixed volume.
No. You can compress a gas because the particles are NOT close together. If they are close together (as in a solid) it is extremely difficult to compress any further.
compress it
-- Cool it. -- Compress it (but you must also cool it while you compress it).
The molecules of a solid are the most tightly packed than those of either gas or liquid making it the hardest of the three to compress. Gas has the most space between molecules and is therefore the easiest to compress.
Natural gas is considered non-renewable because it is formed over millions of years from the remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried and subjected to high heat and pressure. Once natural gas reserves are extracted and used, they cannot be readily replenished on human timescales.
yes it can be
One possibility is "compress".
If you compress a gas the temperature increases
Natural gas is too hard to Compress, so, it is collected straight from the ground and pumped to homes. When a Gas field is found they just use a pipe like they do oil to tap into the Gas pocket. Butane is a gas that can be compressed it liquefies under pressure, that why a Lighter looks like it has Liquid in it, you CAN NOT do this with natural gas. This a easy way to explain it
