The molecules for fossil fuels like gasoline, diesel, and natural gas are made only of carbon and hydrogen atoms; for this reason, they are called "hydrocarbons". A carbon atom can form 4 bonds, hydrogen 1, thus the simplest hydrocarbon is CH4. It's a gas at room temperature, and it's the fossil fuel called natural gas when used at home in gas appliances and it's called CNG (compressed natural gas) when used to power cars and buses. In the image below, what is the technical name for CH4? CH4 + 2 02 CO2 2 H20 ---> Methane Охудеn Carbon Dioxide Water
