Methane vs. Natural Gas: Understanding the Basics
Natural gas and methane are often used as synonyms, but they are not exactly perfect substitutes. Methane is a colorless, odorless, and flammable greenhouse gas, [...]

A supercritical fluid (SCF) is a state of matter of a substance in which the temperature and pressure are above the critical point, resulting in [...]
Boyle’s law explains the relationship between the variables, pressure, and volume, at a constant temperature. The volume of a gas depends on different factors like [...]
Charles’s law explains how gases expand when they are heated. This law is also known as the law of volume. It is because the volume [...]
Everything that occupies space and has some weight is called matter. There are four states of matter that are; solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. However, [...]
Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive gas composed of three oxygen atoms. It is a man-made product in the troposphere but occurs naturally in the [...]
Photochemical smog is a mixture of smoke, fog, and contaminants. It is formed when ozone-depleting substances such as nitrogen oxides, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and volatile organic [...]
Diffusion is the random movement of particles from a higher concentration region to an area of lower concentration. Graham's law of diffusion states that the [...]
Though both carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) contain the same elements; carbon and oxygen, they are quite different. The general difference between the [...]
The kinetic molecular theory describes how gases behave ideally. A molecule is the smallest particle of a pure substance that can exist independently. It may [...]
