Ores containing methane are examples of non-renewable resources. Is this statement true?

No, this statement is not accurate. Ores containing methane, such as coal beds, are considered to be non-renewable resources because they are finite and take millions of years to form. Methane itself is a natural gas that can be considered a non-renewable resource as well.


Is methane renewable?

Short answer: its renewable. Longer answer: Naturally formed pockets of methane will not renew themselves for thousands of years. However, methane can be made from biodegradable organic materials and those materials are renewable. So while it may be possible for us to use up all the naturally stored methane underground (though its not likely); we can always just make more by growing the organic materials needed to create it. So it depends on which source of methane you are talking about, naturally formed pockets of it are not renewable, but man made methane is renewable.


Is natural gas an inexhaustible renewable or nonrenewable resource?

Natural as, methane (CH4), is non-renewable. It is one of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).


What gas comes from cowdung?

Methane gas is released when cow dung decomposes in anaerobic conditions. This methane can be captured and used as a source of renewable energy through processes like anaerobic digestion.


Is methane which is made from animal droppings a renewable resource?

Psst! Come in close for this one. There is a secret here. Natural gas, that stuff the utility company pumps into your home, with which you heat the house, water, and cook. That is primarily methane, essentially the same stuff as the stink that comes from manure piles, and is locked in the sea bed. That stuff that the Greenies were complaining about a few years ago was adding to global warming (cow flatuence). In short, yes, methane is a very renewable resource.

Are fuel cells a renewable or non renewable source of energy?

Fuel cells are a manufactured item and are not renewable. The fuel that is used in the fuel cells can either be renewable (alcohol, methane from waste digestion,hydrogen from wind or solar conversion of water) or non-renewable (Hydrogen or methane from oil and gas production, alcohol from industrial processes)
