Cool T dwarfs like Gliese 229b have spectra that when compared to L dwarfs are dominated bythis molecule.
Cool T dwarfs like Gliese 229b have spectra that when compared to L dwarfs are dominated bythis molecule. This non-diatomic molecule can be produced as a result of serpentinization. Thesurface of Makemake is thought to be covered by deposits of this molecule. Low levels of thismolecule have been detected by orbiters on Mars but those detections have been challenged bythe failure of (*) Curiosity to detect this molecule. This molecule is responsible for Neptune's bluecoloration. This molecule is primarily made biotically on Earth and it is thought that this moleculerains down into lakes on Titan. For 10 points, name this molecule with formula CH4.
