Crude oil is broken down by heat vaporized and allowed to condense into various liquids such as gasoline what is this process is called?

This question is misguided. Crude oil is first processed by heating it, which separates it into simpler mixtures called fractions which are of considerably more use than the original crude. This process is called fractional distillation, but it is NOT breaking anything down, merely sorting out substances which are already there. Some of the fractions, often those with higher boiling points may be broken down by cracking, a chemical process which also uses heat, often with a catalyst, and which produces smaller molecules such as those of petrol and ethene.


How does fractional distillation separate Crude oil into fractions?

First of all you have to bend down and suck it :). I Hope It Helped. TROLL.


How is fuel broken down into smaller more useful molecules such as gasoline petrol?

Crude oil is split into fractions using fractional distillation The crude oil is heated and separated based on boiling points. This process produces more Bitumen and other heavier fractions than lighter fractions such as diesel, naphtha and kerosene. To produce more fuel, catalytic cracking is used. In this process heavy hydrocarbons are broken down into lighter ones; For example hexane an alkane, it is converted in to butane and ethene. C6H14 -> C2H4 + C4H10


How does a refinery process crude oil?

Firstly the long chains of molecules are broken down in a process known as cracking, this is when the crude oil is passed over a catalist and broken down into smaller more usable substances. These are then heated and distilled into fractions and are separated into catergories of volatility. This is known as fractional distilation. It is also known as cracking.


What is the method use to separate petroleum into fractions?

Fractional distillation is used to turn crude oil into petroleum, and then the products of that (petroleum is one of them) can be broken down into another more flowing substance using a process called cracking, normally done with aliminium oxide as a catalyst


What could you use crude oil for?

It can be broken down by cracking into Petrol, Kerosene, Lubricants, Asphalt used in paving roads, Feedstock leading to making plastic.
