| For example, the alcohol derivative of methane is methanol and of ethane is ethanol. |
| After blotting excess solution from the carbon side of the grids, they were immediately vitrified in ethane slush. |
| Some researchers suspect that lakes of liquid ethane, or even a moon-girdling ocean of ethane, methane, and propane, may exist on Titan. |
| After blotting away the excess of lipid, the grids were plunged in liquid ethane. |
| The six-inch diameter pipe ruptured, releasing a huge cloud containing around 90 per cent ethane, propane and butane gases. |
| Natural gas is mostly methane with small quantities of ethane and other gases mixed in. |
