It's a mixture of hydrogen, carbon and other 'trace' elements. Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium. All is removed from the methane before it is used. We have from 250-100 years of natural gas left depending of the amount of usage.

natural gas line
What is the Percentage range of lel and uel for natural gas?
The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of natural gas (which is primarily methane). is 5% by volume in air. The Upper Explosive Limit (UEL) is 15% by volume in air
When can volume fraction be equal to mole fraction?
The volume fraction of a substance is equal to the mole fraction for ideal gas mixture

natural gas
Is gasoline a solution?
Gasoline is a very complex mixture of hydrocarbons in liquid form.
How does petroleum and natural gas form?
Natural gas- a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons located under the surface of the earth, often near petroleum deposits; used as a fuel. Petroleum- liquid mixture of complex hydrocarbon compounds; used wisely as a fuel source. Oil and natural gas are formed from the remains of plants and animals.
