A molecule of methane consists of one carbon atom covalently bonded to four hydrogen atoms around it in a symmetrical tetrahedral shape. Its chemical formula is therefore CH4. The angles between each of the bonds are 109o.

Methane is a flammable gas, often released by bacteria while decomposing organic waste. It is lot more polluting than carbon dioxide, but a lot less abundant.
