Which is more viscous honey or kerosene Why?
honey
Which is more viscous water or kerosene?
Water and wax do not go together. Think of the reason why people wax their cars. If the car gets wet the wax allows the water to form droplets and slide off. The wax and the water do not mix. Another way to think of it is floating candles. If the wax dissolved in the water then it wouldn't be a floating candle anymore. So my guess is that it is more soluble in kerosene.
Is oil denser than kerosene?
No it is lighter then water that is why it floats on top.
Which is more viscous pure water or saline water?
The saline water is more viscous.
Which is more dense petrol or kerosene?
kerosene is denser
Which is more viscous honey or kerosene Why?
honey
Is kerosene more viscosity than diesel?
viscous, and yes, it is a thicker liquidthan diesel

Can Coleman fuel be substituted for kerosene?
No, Coleman fuel is much more closely related to unleaded gasoline, and should NOT be used in any kerosene appliances.
Will a lawn tractor run on kerosene?
No, unless it was designed and built to run on kerosene. It probably will not crank. The kerosene will more likely destroy the plactic or rubber parts in the fuel system.

What is the difference between heavy and light mineral oil?
Heavy mineral oil is a more viscous substance, light mineral oil is less viscous. Therapeutically, Light Mineral Oil is used as an emollient for the skin, while Heavy Mineral Oil is used as a Cathartic/Laxative for the bowel.
Can you use kerosene in a fuel oil furnace?
Yes and no. An unmodified oil burner will burn far more kerosene than fuel oil for which it is designed. If you replace the nozzle with a smaller nozzle and adjust the air, using an orsatz [orsat gas analyzer], a device for determining the combustion efficiency of the flame, you will be able to use kerosene. * interesting fact: Kerosene is also known as #1 fuel oil, or JP5 jet fuel. Mixing kerosene with #2 fuel oil, (home heating oil) in small amounts, should have no appreciable effect on the furnace efficiency.
Why is kerosene more expensive than gasoline?
Because the fuel companys are a bunch of oportunistic crooks. the same rule aplys to diesel fuel.
Which is more viscous pure water or saline water?
The saline water is more viscous.
Which fuel is more efficient in a forced air furnace heating oil or kerosene?
The kerosene is a lighter oil. I think you would get more BTUs out of the heating oil. Just make sure that you are using the right fuel for the furnace that you have. Most now days would take heating oil.
How do we get fuel from crude oil?
It is distilled into different fractions, heavy fuel oil (e.g. for ships), kerosene (planes), diesel (cars), gas/petrol (cars), as an example. Also the heavier fractions from distillations may also be 'cracked' to produce more volatile components. The cracking process is undertaken using catalysis.
