Is crude oil a mixture?
It is a mixture of hydrocarbons, which can be separated by fractional distillation. Oil is NOT an element.
How do companies obtain hydrocarbon?
it all started when crude oil was formed by dead organisms millions of years ago, it was buried under mud and silt. The pressurecompacted it which made a rich mixture a hydrocarbons known as crude oil, this is how they are made.
What does crude oil contain?
Crude oil contains a mixture of hydrocarbons molecules
Are unsaturated hydrocarbons a by-product of crude oil refining?
Yes, it is possible.
How is crude made into products?
Crude oil contains mixture of various types of hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons are separated by fractional distillation. Different hydrocarbons have different boiling points and therefore after crude oil is heated, shorter chains of hydrocarbons which have lower boiling point will become gas and can be easily separated one by one from hydrocarbons with shorter chains to longer chains. The brief products are Petroleum Gas, Gasoline, Kerosone, Heating Oil, Lubricating Oil and Bitumen in order of increasing molecular size.
Is crude oil a mixture of several elements?
Crude oil is a mixture of compounds, mainly hydrocarbons and derivatives of hydrocarbons.

What is the same about all the compounds in crude oil?
Either Hydrocarbons, monomers,plastics or polymers

Composition of hydrocarbons in crude oil?
Crude oil has oxygen, carbon dioxide and gastro hemus in it.

What is the difference between alochol and oil?
Both alcohols and oil are organic compounds. The hydrocarbons in crude oil are mostly alkanes, cycloalkanes and various aromatic hydrocarbons, and tend not to contain oxygen, nitrogen, etc. Alcohols DO contain oxygen, in the form of the functional -OH alcoholic group. Alcohols are more reactive than the compounds in oil.
What is the difference between crude palm kernel oil and refined palm kernel oil?
Crude oil is the naturally occurring flammable liquid found deep down beneath the earth surface especially in rock deposits. It contains a mixture of hydrocarbons each with different boiling points.Refined oil is what is obtained after crude oil has gone through a process of 'fractional distillation' or other similar procedures which reduces the original crude form to simpler hydrocarbons which can be obtained in a fractional distillation column at different stages depending on the temperature of each constituent hydrocarbon.
What is the difference between heavy crude oil and light crude oil?
light crude oil has less specific gravity,less viscosity while heavy crude oil has more specific gravity & viscosity.
Are unsaturated hydrocarbons a by-product of crude oil refining?
Yes, it is possible.
