Methane Gas
Science brain teasers require understanding of the physical or biological world and the laws that govern it.
If you were to step into a sealed room filled with 100% methane gas and strike a match, what would happen?
Answer
Nothing. The match cannot spark without oxygen.

to generate that much methane? I
