Methane is cool!
Methane is used around the world everday. It makes up 70-90% of natural gas which is a commonly used energy source. It helps light a bunsen burner and has been used for centuries to start fire. It burns relatively cleanly, and it lighter than air. Methane is trapped in the earth form decomposed plants and animals. Humans and animals also create smalla mounts of methane gas through digestion.

The blog's general appearance is quite attractive. The background compliments the theme and general layout of the blog, without taking away from the information.
ReplyDeleteThe advertisement was clever, and in post that illustrates methane's uses, we get an idea of why we should purchase this product.
All of your information was correct, and was presented in a way that allowed for flow and clarity. The bond angles in the picture were correct, as well as the arrows in the dash model. One thing that could've made it clearer is if one had established the electro-negativity of the atoms and how that affected each bond.
-Good Job :)
