How does a regular hydrate differ from a methane hydrate?


Rate This Answer

When you combine water and swamp gas under low temperatures and high pressure you get a frozen latticelike substance called methane hydrate, huge amounts of which underlie our oceans and polar permafrost. This crystalline combination of a natural gas and water (known technically as a clathrate) looks remarkably like ice but burns if it meets a lit match.. ChaCha!
