Sustainable means it can be used continuously and renewably without any damaging side effects.
Crude oil is not sustainable.
Fossil fuels Pollution CO2 Global warming Incomplete combustion Non-renewable non-sustainable
Polymers are not made into crude oil. Crude oil is made into polymers.
Yup! Crude Oil -> Crude Oil Vapour --> Diesel Oil --> Ethene --> Poly(ethene)
1 barrel of crude oil equals 42 US gallons of crude oil.
Crude oil is excavated using an excavation machine. Crude oil easily comes to the surface and is easy to excavate, while shale oil is not.

Plastics can be recycled over and over, whether they are made from crude fossil fuel oil, or renewable vegetable oil. So in this sense they are sustainable. The earth has a limited supply of crude oil, but when that runs out there will still be some fossil fuel plastics to be recycled.

Crude oil is crude..
Polymers are not made into crude oil. Crude oil is made into polymers.
Crude will never run out, but it will run terrifyingly short due to the population of planet earth and the dependency on oil. Crude oil is a renewable resource although some say it is not. Oil is created over millions of years of temperature and pressure on decaying matter such as plant life or animal life. Oil will make itself just as it did when we discovered it. Though with the amount consumed today, the amount will never reach a sustainable level.
It is a mixture of hydrocarbons, which can be separated by fractional distillation. Oil is NOT an element.
What other thing you can do with crude oil.
Yup! Crude Oil -> Crude Oil Vapour --> Diesel Oil --> Ethene --> Poly(ethene)
Crude Oil is hydrocarbon and it is mixture of carbon and hydrogen.
Zero. A barrel or crude oil contains... crude oil.
