Methane Gas: Properties and Applications
Methane (CH₄) is a colorless, odorless, and non-toxic organic compound with distinct physical characteristics. Under standard temperature and pressure (STP), methane exists as a gas with a density approximately 0.55 times that of air, making it lighter and minimally soluble in water. It transitions to liquid at -161.5°C (boiling point) and solidifies at -182.5°C (melting point), remaining gaseous under ambient conditions.
Chemically, methane demonstrates notable stability, showing low reactivity with strong acids, bases, or oxidizing agents. However, under specific conditions such as UV exposure or elevated temperatures, it undergoes characteristic reactions:
- Substitution reactions: Reacts with halogens (e.g., chlorine) to form halogenated derivatives like chloromethane.
- Oxidation (combustion): Burns completely in oxygen to yield carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O), releasing significant energy.
- Thermal decomposition: At high temperatures (>1000°C), methane decomposes into carbon black and hydrogen gas (H₂), a critical process in industrial carbon production.
This unique combination of stability and reactivity makes methane a versatile compound for applications ranging from fuel production to chemical synthesis.
