प्रश्न
Explain why, natural gas is considered to be a good fuel.

Natural gas is a good fuel because it has a high calorific value of up to 50 kJ/g. It burns with a smokeless flame and causes no air pollution. There is also no need for additional storage and transport because it can be directly supplied from gas wells to homes.
