There is not a "cut and dry" answer to this as the boiling of crude oil is a process.
Heated to about 500 C the covalent carbon-carbon bonds begin to break during the "cracking process" - or breaking down of large molecules of heavy heating oil.
computer says 500 oC
boiling point of crude oil is depending on the main component in the crude oil itself, heavy crude for example has a higher boiling point from light crude.
the Melting point depends on different types of Crude oil.. Crude oils are of different types ..so there is no specific Boiling point
This is the separation of crude oil components based on the differences between boiling point temperatures.
By using the boiling point of each substance to separate it out
boiling point
Smaller molecules have a lower boiling point, and larger molecules have a higher boiling point. Source: Learnt this in class today.
The fraction of crude oil that has the lowest boiling point is the Liquified Petroleum Gas, which is a mixture of small hydrocarbons(methane, ethane, etc).
It is impossible to refer to a common boiling point for crude oil because of the widely differing boiling points of its numerous compounds, some of which may boil at temperatures too high to be measured.
You can separate substances in a crude oil by distillation process. But you have to know what are the boiling points of each of the substance in the crude oil.
fuel gases, because they have the smallest amount of carbons present...between 1 and 4.
Crude oils are extracted by fractioning crude oil in a fractioning tower. They are fractioned by heating to boiling point and rising up the tower where they condensate and come out in another form.
