Propane
Propane is a colorless, gaseous alkane (A hydrocarbon containing only single carbon-carbon bonds). The chemical formula for propane is C3H8. It is readily liquefied by compression and cooling. Propane has a melting point of an unbelievable 189.9C and boils at just 42.2C. Propane occurs in nature in natural gas (in its dissolved form of course) in crude oil; its separated in large quantities from natural gas, light crude oil, and oil-refininery gases and is commercially available as liquefied propane or as a major constituent of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Its also looked at as a byproduct of petroleum refining. Its main purpose is as a fuel. For this purpose it is sold compressed in cylinders just like you see on tankers; oil drums. When it is carried in these various shapes of cylinders it is usually mixed with other hydrocarbons, such as butane; because of the similarity they both share to each other it has great importan
