What is produced when burning one cubic foot of natural gas?

  1. 800-900 BTU's

  2. 900-1100 BTU's

  3. 1000-1200 BTU's

  4. 1100-1300 BTU's

The correct answer is: 800-900 BTU's

When burning one cubic foot of natural gas, approximately 800-900 BTU's (British Thermal Units) of energy is produced. The other options all state a higher range of BTU's, which is incorrect. This could be due to factors such as incomplete combustion or impurities in the natural gas. Additionally, the actual BTU output can vary depending on the quality and type of natural gas being burned. Therefore, it is most accurate to say that 800-900 BTU's are produced when burning one cubic foot of natural gas on average.
