Methane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4.
The chemical symbol for methane is CH4. Which means there is one Carbon atom and 4 Hydrogen atoms.
Methane has the molecular structure of CH4, it contains a carbon atom, thus it is a carbon compound. But it is not itself considered carbon.
The molecule of methane has 5 atoms.
carbon is one atom and hydrogen is four atoms in the methane totally 5 atoms in that.
It is methane
1 atom of carbon (C) in 1 molecule of methane (CH4)
methane = CH4, 4 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of CARBON

HYDROGEN
The chemical formula for methane gas is CH4. It is composed of one carbon atom bonded to four hydrogen atoms.
Actually methane molecules have no oxygen atoms. Methane is an organic compound ( a gas at room temperature) which is composed of only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Each methane molecule has 1 carbon atom bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms by covalent bonds.
# Methane has a carbon atom, ammonia has none # Ammonia has a nitrogen atom, methane has none # Methane has a neutral static charge # Ammonia has a positive static charge # Methane is energetically stable # Ammonia is energetically unstable
