What is the difference between hydrocarbons and crude oil?
separation of hydrocarbons means separation crude oil of unpuerties also separation hydrocarbon gases but in case separation of crude oil only oil
Is crude oil a mixture?
It is a mixture of hydrocarbons, which can be separated by fractional distillation. Oil is NOT an element.
How do companies obtain hydrocarbon?
it all started when crude oil was formed by dead organisms millions of years ago, it was buried under mud and silt. The pressurecompacted it which made a rich mixture a hydrocarbons known as crude oil, this is how they are made.
How is crude made into products?
Crude oil contains mixture of various types of hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons are separated by fractional distillation. Different hydrocarbons have different boiling points and therefore after crude oil is heated, shorter chains of hydrocarbons which have lower boiling point will become gas and can be easily separated one by one from hydrocarbons with shorter chains to longer chains. The brief products are Petroleum Gas, Gasoline, Kerosone, Heating Oil, Lubricating Oil and Bitumen in order of increasing molecular size.
What does crude oil contain?
Crude oil contains a mixture of hydrocarbons molecules
How is it possible to increase the yield of light hydrocarbons from crude petroleum?
Increasing the yield of light hydrocarbons in crude petroleum is only possible by refining the petroleum in a huge chemical plant, so you will not be able to do it in your home. The refining process itself is very complicated: crude oil is separated into different fractions by distillation which are later treated further to convert them into new compound mixtures.
Is crude oil a mixture of several elements?
Crude oil is a mixture of compounds, mainly hydrocarbons and derivatives of hydrocarbons.
What is the difference between hydrocarbons and crude oil?
separation of hydrocarbons means separation crude oil of unpuerties also separation hydrocarbon gases but in case separation of crude oil only oil

What is the same about all the compounds in crude oil?
Either Hydrocarbons, monomers,plastics or polymers
Is crude oil different from fuel?
Yes. Fuel (gasoline) is the product that is the result of the refining of crude oil.
