Is diesel saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon?
Kerosene or Kerosine is neither. It neither belongs under the Aliphatic or Aromatic branch of Organic chemistry. It's a different branch of Chemistry called Hydrocarbon Derivatives (which contain other organic compounds such as alcohol, ethers and amides). Kerosine fits under a different branch of organic chemistry.Aliphatic hydrocarbons are compounds in organic chemistry that consist of carbon and hydrogen and are non-aromatic.
How much is the kerosene per 1liter?
Usually kerosene is refined such that it contains less than 100 ppm water. When water is added to kerosene it becomes cludy in appearance. To remove water from hydrocarbons, they are passed over molecular sieves which bind the water to sites on the resins but allow hydrocarbons such as kerosene and gasoline to pass unhindered.
Is Kerosene natural gas?
No, kerosene is a liquid
What odor have kerosene?

What is jet fuel made from?
It's very much like kerosene or paraffin. It is refined from crude oil.
What were some of the first products refined from crude oil?
One of the first commercially viable products refined from crude was Kerosene, which was the "hurricane lamp" fuel of the later 1800's.
How is crude oil used?
It is refined into various fractions, including gasoline, diesel, kerosene, heavy fuel oil
Can diesel or biodiesel be used in kerosene space heaters?
Yes! Diesel, kerosene and gasoline are really the same thing except that they have different octanes. Diesel is the lowest refined gas then kerosene then your different octanes of gas. So, to make the octane the same as kerosene you simply mix the right amount of gas with diesel and voila, you have kerosene. I think u can use a lower octane than kerosene but NEVER put anything of a higher octane than kerosene! Yes!

To transform it from its raw, useless form into a useful one. Some examples are provided:Bauxite mineral is refined into aluminium.Oil is refined into gasoline, kerosene and other products.
What type of fuel did Mercury Atlas 1 use?
Liquid oxygen and RP-1 (a highly refined form of kerosene).
A colorless liquid fuel burned for cooking and heating especially when camping?
called White gas or Parrafin, highly refined kerosene
What kind of mixture is petroleum?
Petroleum, that is unrefined crude oil is a heterogeneous mixture. These hydrocarbon components are separated and refined in fractional distillation columns. Refined constituents include diesel, fuel oil, and kerosene for example.
Is kerosene flammable?
Due to high percentage of carbon the kerosene oil is not converted inti carbon dioxide and water on combustion but some quantity of the carbon is escaped as unburned particles which are responsible for smoke or its black colour. flame is due to emmition of light at slower rate.
Why is kerosene used for jet fuel?
Kerosene isn't. However, jet fuel, kerosene, and diesel fuel all are very similar. They're less refined than unleaded fuel, and that reduces the risk of on-board fires, for one. Additionally, they burn at a higher BTU rate than unleaded/petrol fuels.
