Propane is the common name---I have never heard of it called anything else. Natural gas contains propane, but there is typically more methane and ethane in natural gas than there is propane.

What is the chemical name for Polypropylene?

Polypropylene is the correct chemical name. It is the polymer formed from the monomer propene. Propene has the structure. H2C=CHCH3 When it polymerises the double bond breaks open to form a single bond between the carbons and the 'broken' open ends combine with the next monomer to form the polymer. Structurally it is represented by ' --[-CH2 - CH(CH3)- ] -- (n) NB There are NO double bonds present. The ;'n' represents 'n' number of monomers forming the polymer. 'n' can be in the thousands or even millions. Polypropylene makes an artificial rope. NB PVC is polyvinyl chloride. In this case the 'CH3; group is replaced by a chlorine atom. --[-CH2 - CHCl- ] -- (n) from CH2=CHCl Chloroethene Polystyrene is the same again except that the 'CH3'/Cl' is replaced with a phenyl group *C6CH5) --[-CH2 - CH(C6H5)- ] -- (n) from CH2=CH(C6H5) Phenyl ethene/ .

What is the reagents and reaction condition necessary to change propanol to propene?

To convert propanol to propene, you can employ dehydration using an acid catalyst. Common reagents include sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) or phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄). The reaction typically requires heating the alcohol to facilitate the elimination of water, resulting in the formation of propene.
