How do humans use hydrocarbons?
Calor gas, petrol, naptha, paraffin, diesel, fuel oil, lubricating oil and bitumen all come out of a fractionating column
What is more flammable petrol diesel gas kerosine bitumen?
kerosine
What chemical turns into gas the easiest out of naphtha diesel bitumen and pertrol?
which one out of naptha diesel bitumen and petrol is the easiest to turn in to gas in order best to worse.
What is a cracking of a oil fraction?
It is when you break large hydrocarbons/alkanes, into smaller more useful alkanes/alkenes. For example a large hydrocarbon in crude oil is Bitumen. By passing this substance over a hot catalyst, you can break it down into smaller hydrocarbons such as Petrol or Diesel
What is Chemical composition of petrol and diesel?
Petrol composition ranges from C5-C12 while that of Diesel average composition is C12H23, ranging from approx. C10H20 to C15H28. So it shows that Diesel consists of heaveir hydrocarbons than Petrol.
Where do hydrocarbons in petrol and diesel come from?
fossil fuels
Mixture of hydrocarbons that are used for fuels?
I am pretty sure the answer is hydrocarbons.
What color is bitumen compared to smaller hydrocarbons?
Bitumen is black.
What meant by crude petrol?
Mixture of naturally occurring hydrocarbons that is refined into diesel, gasoline ------------------------- Crude petrol is petrol as extracted, without any treatment.
What does crude oil separate into?
bitumen, fuel oil, lubricating oil, diesel, kerosene, naphtha, petrol, refinery gas
What is petrol and diesel?
Diesel and petrol (gasoline) are flammable fossil fuels containing hydrocarbons that we get when plants and animals get buried in the soil and decay over many years. It eventually forms crude oil which is refined into petrol or diesel.
Why has bitumen got a higher boiling point than petrol?
because bitumen has higher molar mass than petrol (more molecules than petrol), bitumen needs more energy to vaporize its molecules than petrol
