Catalytic cracking is the process of reacting a heated hydrocarbon with a catalyst such as iron or platinum to produce two or more lighter hydrocarbons with smaller carbon chains.
In a cracking reaction, smaller hydrocarbons are produced from larger hydrocarbons, typically resulting in alkanes and alkenes. This process often generates valuable products like gasoline and petrochemical feedstocks. Additionally, it may produce byproducts such as hydrogen gas and other light hydrocarbons. Overall, cracking is a key process in refining crude oil to create usable fuels and chemicals.
All bacteria produce chemicals. Could you possibly be more specific?
yes! fungi produce chemicals that digest plant remains.
Examples: alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes, aromatric hydrocarbons, etc.
Chemicals for chemical nuclear warfare
They produce chemicals to fight infection and later produce chemicals to "turn off" the immune system.
Can chemicals in a fruit produce electricity
hormones
pheromones .
yes
carbon, oxygen
They don't produce anything special.
