Natural gas is primarily composed of methane, but also contains ethane, propane, and heavier hydrocarbons.
Natural gas is a colorless, tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic gas. Because it is odorless, mercaptan is added to the natural gas, in very small amounts to give the gas a distinctive smell of rotten eggs. This strong smell can alert you of a potential gas leak.
It also contains small amounts of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and trace amounts of water.
The seven elements ? helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon, and oganesson of Group 18 of the periodic table are Noble or Inert gases.
Radon is the heaviest and Helium is the lightest gases of the noble gases.
Electrons orbit around the nucleus is correct about them.
Bond order is proportional to the bond length is a False statement since Bond order is inversely proportional to the bond length.
Carbohydrates are also called as saccharides are molecular compounds made from just three elements:
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Carbohydrates are:
* a source of energy for the body e.g. glucose and a store of energy, e.g. starch in plants
* building blocks for polysaccharides (giant carbohydrates), e.g. cellulose in plants and glycogen in the human body
* components of other molecules eg DNA, RNA, glycolipids, glycoproteins, ATP
Types:
1. Monosaccharides (e.g. glucose) and
2. Disaccharides (e.g. sucrose) are relatively small molecules. They are often called sugars.
3. Other carbohydrate molecules are very large called Polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose.
