What becomes the carbon atoms in the body of orgnisms?
the burning of oil in factories..........
Why are hydrocarbons important to petroleum industry?
the use of hydrocarbons (alkanes) depends on the number of carbon atoms number of carbon atoms form use 1-4 (g) heating and cooking fuel 5-7 (L) solvents and gasoline 6-18 (L) gasoline 12-24 (L) jet fuel and camp stove fuel 18-50 (L) diesel fuel, heating oil and lubricants 50+ (s) petroleum jelly, paraffin wax, tar and asphalt
What are the fractions that are separated from the crude oil?
The number of carbon atoms determine the products available in crude oil. Name Number of Carbon Atoms Refinery Gas 3 or 4 Petrol 7 to 9 Naphtha 6 to 11 Kerosene 11 to 18 Diesel Oil 11 to 18 Lubricating Oil 18 to 25 Fuel Oil 20 to 27 Greases and Wax 25 to 30 Bitumen above 35
What is the chemical composition of furnace oil?
Furnace oil is not one single species of petrochemical. The hydrocarbon fuel is a mixture of compounds in the range of 14 to 20 carbon atoms. The chemical formula for some of the more common molecules of heating oil might be C14H30, C15H32, C16H34, C17H36, C18H38, C19H40, or C20H42.
Examples of saturation of fatty acids?
Some common examples of fatty acids:Butyric acid with 4 carbon atoms (contained in butter)Lauric acid with 12 carbon atoms (contained in coconut oil, palm kernel oil, and breast milk)Myristic acid with 14 carbon atoms (contained in cow's milk and dairy products)Palmitic acid with 16 carbon atoms (contained in palm oil and meat)Stearic acid with 18 carbon atoms (also contained in meat and cocoa butter)
How many carbon atoms are present in one molecule of fuel oil?
if your fuel is an octane, then the number of carbon atom is 8.
How many carbon atoms are there in vegetable oil?
Organic materials and organic materials including vegetable oil is made ​​from carbohydrates.
Where do caron atoms come from in co when oil is burned?
The carbon comes from the oil.
How is crude oil obtained?
Oil and gas are chemicals made from molecules containing just carbon and hydrogen. All living things are made of complex molecules of long strings of carbon atoms. Connected to these carbon atoms are others such as hydrogen and oxygen. A simple molecule, called methane (CH4), is the main component of natural gas.Crude oil (oil obtained from the ground) is a sticky, gooey black stuff. It contains many different molecules, but all are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What becomes the carbon atoms in the body of orgnisms?
the burning of oil in factories..........
Is fossil fuel diesel or biodiesel?
Diesel oil is a fossil fuel.Bio diesel oil is a renewable fuel that adds to carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases (it moves carbon dioxide in and out of the atmosphere as part of the carbon cycle).
What is the number of the carbon hydrogen and sulfur atoms in a diesel molecule?
Pure diesel does not contain any sulfur atoms. The molecular statement for Diesel is C12H23, which means each molecule of diesel contains 12 Carbon atoms and 23 Hydrogen atoms. Sulfur shows up in diesel because it is in the crude oil originally and the cost of refining out all the sulfur from the diesel is very expensive.
What two element make up fuel oil?
hydrogen and carbon :)
What fossil fuel produces more carbon dioxide than any other fossil fuel?
oil
How does saturated fat effect iodine atoms?
unsaturated are oils that have double bonds in their structure because there is not enough hydrogen atoms to bond with the carbon atoms. In such case, carbon atoms bond to each others to form double or triple bonds. adding iodine, saturates the oil as iodine atoms bond to carbon atoms as if they were hydrogen atoms. This is an answer to the question that should read: How does iodine affect unsaturated fats?
What about to use mix from diesel and insulation oil for automotive purpose?
There are many different types of insulating oil. Quite a few are non-flammable. Some are 2 carbon atoms different to diesel.
What effect does fuel have on the amount of carbon dioxide in the air?
Most of our fuel is fossil fuel, that is, coal, oil and natural gas. When these are used for fuel (by burning) they release carbon which has been stored in them for millions of years. This is adding to the amount of carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) in the atmosphere.
