Question

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

• A. prevents respiratory problems
• B. prevents headaches
• C. causes less air pollution
• D. prevents over combustion

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

causes less air pollution

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 environment 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.
