Crude oil is made of a mixture organic molecules contain Carbon and Hydrogen. IT can be burned as is to produce heat, or the component molecules can be distilled off to make fuel products such as propane, diesel, and petrol. All these compounds can be burnt in engines to produce mechanical energy which can then be used directly or converted into electrical energy.
Crude Oil is refined into gasoline.
No.
Alternative sources of energy to crude oil include renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, and biomass energy. These sources are sustainable and have lower environmental impacts compared to fossil fuels like crude oil.
On average, a barrel of crude oil contains approximately 5.8 million BTU (British Thermal Units) of energy. This energy content can vary depending on the type and quality of the crude oil.
Alternative sources of energy that can be used instead of crude oil include solar power, wind power, hydropower, geothermal energy, and biofuels. These sources are renewable and have less impact on the environment compared to fossil fuels like crude oil.
Yes, until crude oil (a non-renewable resource) finally runs out.
Yes, hydrogen has a higher energy content per unit mass compared to crude oil when burned. However, crude oil contains more energy per volume compared to hydrogen, making it more practical for use in many applications.
how long has oil been used for
By the food chain all animals get their energy from eating other animals which eat plants, plants make energy using sunlight therefore the dead animals all got their energy from sunlight, the dead animals became crude oil therefore, crude oil gets its energy from the sun QED

The amount of crude oil being used right now currently exceeds that supply readily available.
No, NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange) is a commodity futures exchange where various energy products, including WTI (West Texas Intermediate) crude oil, are traded. WTI crude oil refers specifically to the grade of crude oil that is used as a benchmark for oil prices in the United States.
