What is the process in which large hydrocarbons are converted into smaller hydrocarbons which provide better fuel?
Process is called cracking.
What is the process in which large hydrocarbons are converted into smaller hydrocrabons which provide fuel?
cracking
Why is there a carbon cost for for the process of cracking a hydrocarbon?
This is because hydrocarbons are very expensive.x
In which process dose the cell use a vesicle to move molecules out of the cell?
Exocytosis is the process that moves molecules from the inside of the cell to the outside. This process uses sacs or vesicles to move the molecules out.
What is the name given to the process of breaking up the molecules of hydrocarbons?
The process is called 'cracking' or more properly "Fluid Catalytic Cracking". It takes place in a Catalytic Cracker (cat cracker) where a combination of high heat, pressure, and chemical catalysts break long chain hydrocarbons into more valuable shorter chain ones. A catalyst is a compound that speeds up (or slows down) a reaction without being used in the reaction. So a catalyst can be used over and over again for the same process.
What process or chemical reactions go on inside a cell?
When two molecules react within a cell, their atoms are rearranged. This releases or consumes energy.
What is the process in which large hydrocarbons are converted into smaller hydrocarbons which is provided better fuel?
The process is called "cracking" .
What is the process in which large hydrocarbons are converted into smaller hydrocarbons which provide better fuel?
Process is called cracking.
What does catabolic involves?
In Biology, catabolism refers to the destruction, or degradation of biomolecules. This is typically a controlled process whereby enzymes cleave molecules to their constituent molecules.
What is A mixture of hydrocarbons occurring with petroleum deposits?
You can think of petroleum deposits AS a mixture of hydrocarbons. One such mixture which we process and purify is gasoline!
What process is used to separate the hydrocarbons in crude oil?
Fractional Distillation
What is crack?
Cracking takes place after the process of fractional distillation. It is the process of braking down the larger, less useful hydrocarbons into smaller, more useful molecules. How is it done? This process involves heating the hydrocarbons to vapourise them and passing the vapours over a hot catalyst. The products of this process are a smaller alkane and an alkene. This is called a thermal decomposition reaction.
