Methane
Meth- → me teeth → bun → one → 1 carbon atom
-ane → cane → shingle → single → single carbon bond
Which looks like
Or
So methane = CH4
CH4
It also works the other way…
CH4 is
Which looks like
Or
1 carbon atom → one → bun → me teeth → meth-
Single carbon bond → single → shingle → cane → -ane
Therefore CH4 is methane
