Compared to oil, an advantage of using natural gas is that it:

  1. prevents respiratory problems

  2. prevents headaches

  3. causes less air pollution

  4. prevents over combustion
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Natural gas tops other fossil fuels when it comes to clean burning. Since the process of natural gas combustion is almost up to the mark, the level of byproducts disseminated to the environmental is little. In addition, advances in technologies have massively reduced nitrogen oxide, a common pollutant emitted by natural gas. The blue flame witnessed during the process of burning natural gas is an indication that the gas is burning perfectly.

A Correct answer
Explanation
 Hydrazine, $\left( {N} _{2}{H} _{4} \right)$
Substance used for launching rocket are called rocket propellant. 
A propellant have two part-
  1. fuel
  2. oxidiser
Liquid propellant: fuel and oxidiser both are liquid.
  • fuel (kerosene, ${N} _{2}{H} _{4}$, liquid ${H} _{2}$)
  • oxidiser($liq.{O} _{2}, \; {N} _{2}{O} _{4}$)

Hydrogen gas is obtained from:

  1. petroleum

  2. coal

  3. coke

  4. natural gas
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Fossil fuels are the dominant source of industrial hydrogen. Carbon dioxide can be separated from natural gas with a 60-70% efficiency for hydrogen production and from other hydrocarbons to varying degrees of efficiency.Specifically, bulk hydrogen is usually produced by the steam reforming of methane or natural gas.
