C4H10 is the molecular formula for Butane. Butane has two possible *structural formulas* which describe the way in which the molecule is constructed. n-Butane has the condensed structural formula of CH3CH2CH2CH3. In this isomer of Butane each Carbon is bonded to another forming a chain with Hydrogens bonded to each of the carbons, 3 to the Carbon on each end, and 2 to each Carbon in the center. Isobutane has the condensed structural formula of CH(CH3)3. In this isomer, 3 Carbons are bonded to a single Carbon atom in the center of the molecule. The outer Carbons have 3 Hydrogens bonded to them, and the center Carbon has 1 Hydrogen bonded to it.

What is the exact chemical formula of natural gas?

LPG is not a pure compounds, so it doesn't really have one, but it's probably mostly propane (C3H8) and/or a mixture of isomers of butane (C4H10). By the time you reach pentane and higher alkanes, it's normally called pet (petroleum) ether rather than LPG.
