Some of the physical properties of Propane include:

  • A gas [vaporous] at ordinary temperatures and atmospheric pressure
  • Colorless
  • Tasteless
  • Odorless [until an "odorant," usually one of the "Mercaptins," is added]

Gasoline is a clear liquid slightly less dense than water that gives off the sickeningly sweet smell of aromatic hydrocarbons (oil). Gasoline is used in cars due to its high energy to weight ratio, and its high flammability, which makes it dangerous to handle carelessly.

Gasoline only requires a spark to set it off and, unlike most hydrocarbons (oil), gasoline tends to explode (Gasoline doesn't explode. It is a chemical reaction, and then it becomes inflamed with fire very quickly) rather than burn. This property makes it hard to contain a gasoline fire because as soon as it ignites, it spreads rapidly. Don't put water on a gasoline fire, it will make the fire worse.

Gasoline is one of the purest forms of petroleum - second only to aircraft fuel - which makes it burn much cleaner than its diesel counterpart. However, since gasoline is a non-renewable fuel source, prices can drastically fluctuate with production costs, making it an unstable yet reliable fuel.

Your question is about the properties of both 'ethane and ethane', Ethane is a colorless odorless gas that is used as a refrigerant and a fuel. It is a byproduct of the refining process and is isolated from natural gas.
