All us wanker yankees call it "gas" as a shortened form of the word gasoline. We are not referring to the natural state of the compound as either a solid, liquid, or gas.
Gasoline or Petrol is a petroleum-derived liquid mixture consisting mostly of aliphatic hydrocarbons, enhanced with iso-octane or the aromatic hydrocarbons toluene and benzene to increase its octane rating, and is primarily used as fuel in internal combustion engines.
