venus
By polluting and Cars ( Petrol ) Littering and Oil towers wich pollute the air !?
There seems to be no direct evidence that any planet was thought to be covered in oil. Some sources seem to point to Venus but there is no reason that Venus would have oil apart from the early belief that because Venus was covered with clouds, clouds meant rain. Which meant that the surface of Venus had water. because of it's proximity to the Sun, it must be warm. So what has a lot of water and is warm. Swamps. What did swamps have, a lot of trees. Aka the carboniferous period when vast quantities of carbon was laid down which would have produced quantities of oil, gas and coal - as on Earth. However, this did not happen. Please add to the discussion area with reasons, why this question was asked to assist in getting a better answer.
I don"t know about the space shuttles but the fuel consumption of the Saturn V"s used in the manned Moon shots was humungous- bear in mind this is various types of rocket fuel, not anything you would find at a service station, but in the initial stage burns the Saturn V consumed- l6 tons of rocket fuel a second! that"s an average fully loaded Truck of the Mack type- 32,000 lbs, in one second!
The freezing point for Peanut Oil is 3 °C (37.4 °F).
The "Pour Point" of engine oil is about -44ºF.
Freezing oil will be extremely viscous. Oil does not freeze easily. The freezing point of oil is very low like -30oC.
SUBSTANCE FREEZING POINT corn oil - 20 deg. C sunflower oil - 17 deg. C olive oil - 6 deg. C sesame oil - 6 deg. C peanut oil 3 deg. C palm oil 24.1 deg. C coconut oil 25.1 deg.
Lower than -18 c as I have tried.
259 K equal -14 oC.
The freezing point of Mustard oil is -5°C.
after extensive research i have come to the conclusion the the freezing point of 10w40 motor oil is -500 degrees F -500 degrees F, really?! -500F is about -22.4K. The coldest anything can get is 0 K.
Mixing almost any substance with water will lower its freezing point. When you mix vegetable oil with ice, the long molecules disrupt the ice crystals forming, thus lowering the freezing point and cause it to melt.
-30C(-22F) is listed as the freezing point for mineral oil. Due to viscosity (how thick the fluid is, basically), however, it's lowest useful temperature is considered to be 10C (50F).
Olive Oil is primarily oleic acid which has a freezing point of 39 degrees Fahrenheit.
Exact unknow, but pour point is 3 deg cel, so it has to be a little below this.
