Air
Useful Facts
Air mostly contain gas, air
is a result of combination
of different gases. It has a
small amount of other
gases, Nitrogen has 78%,
oxygen has 21%, and the
remaining 19% is the
other gases such as;
carbon dioxide, neon, and
hydrogen. Further more,
air also acts as an
insulation in our earth
atmosphere. It prevents
the temperature of our
earth to reach too cold or
too hot.
Air in the atmosphere also
protects us from the
possible meteoroids that
can hit the earth. Once
the meteoroids contact
our atmosphere it rub
against the air and
oftentimes are burned
into small pieces before it
hit the earth’s land.
Uses
Air is relevant in our life.
We inhale air in everyday
event, whether your
sleeping, awake, or doing
a tasks. Without air, it is
impossible for us to live
and be alive.
We need air to produce
Natural Gas
Natural gas is odourless,
colourless, and
flammable. It is much
lighter than air. Because
the natural gas is
odourless, many
companies mixed
chemical to natural gas
for it to be detected
easily.
Natural gas is formed
over millions of years
from the remains of
ancient plants and
animals buried and
subjected to high
pressure and heat deep
within the Earth's crust. It
is typically found in
underground reservoirs
or trapped within rock
formations.
Natural gas is a fossil fuel
primarily composed of
methane (CH4), although
it can also contain small
amounts of other
hydrocarbons such as
ethane, propane, and
butane. It is often found
alongside petroleum
deposits.
Natural Gas can be use to
run variety of vehicles in
a form of fuel.
It can also be used as a
residential heating for
homes.
Natural gas is widely used

co2 that is needed in the
photosynthesis process of
the plants.
The air helps the earth to
maintain its temperature
by circulating the hot and
cold air.
Air is also used as a source
of electrical power. For
instance a windmill.
Windmill is a type of
electricity generator and it
can only function by the
blow of an air.
Trivia
Air can move fast and far.
The fastest speed of air
that is recorded on earth
was 253 miles per hour.
Air also holds water.
When the weather is hot
and muggy. There is a
humid. Humid or also
known as “humidity” is
the amount of water that
the air can hold before it
rains.
The air changes as you go
up, this is known as “air
pressure”. We experience
a lot of pressure the
higher our location is, for
instance; you’re on a
plane, you will most likely
feel the pressure specially
if you’re located on top of
a sea, due to the
atmosphere’s pressure
pushing down. However, if
you’re on top of a
for cooking and food
preparation in
households, restaurants,
and commercial kitchens.
It provides instant heat
and precise temperature
control.
Natural gas itself is
odorless, but an odorant
called mercaptan is
added to it for safety
purposes. Mercaptan
gives natural gas a
distinct odor (often
described as a rotten egg
smell) to help detect
leaks.
Among fossil fuels,
natural gas is considered
the cleanest-burning
option. It produces fewer
greenhouse gas
emissions, particulate
matter, and sulfur dioxide
compared to coal and oil.
In the year 2021, the
largest producer of
natural gas are; US,
Russia, and China.

mountain, you will feel
less pressure.
