What else can I help you with?
Is natural gas the same as petroleum?
No, natural gas and petroleum are not the same. Natural gas is a fossil fuel primarily composed of methane, while petroleum, also known as crude oil, is a mixture of hydrocarbons that can be refined into various products such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Both natural gas and petroleum are used as sources of energy, but they have different compositions and properties.
Is dimethyl ether a structural isomer?
Yes it is. It's structural isomer is ethanol C2H5OH
What would have been the result if a large quantity of petroleum ether alone were used as the eluent in either of the experiments described in column chromatography?
petroleum ether is a lot less polar than solvents like MTBE and the hexanes. so if the stationary phase is a lot more polar than the solvent then the components of the mixture that were added to the column to be separated will get stuck in the stationary phase
What has the same raw material as plastic?
Petroleum.
Is the evaporation of ether a chemical change?
No. Evaporation of ether or any other substance is a physical change as the identity of the substance remains the same.
What is more polar either ethyl acetate or pet ether?
Ethylacetate is more polar. IT has a carbonyl group, which means the more electronegative Oxygen is drawing electron density towards oxygen, hence leaves the carbonyl carbon to be delta positive, hence there is polarity between those atoms of the molecule, then there is the ethyl group attached to this same carbonyl carbon, which although there is a degree of induction due to the CH2CH3 somewhat pushing towards the the carbonyl carbon, yet again the oxygen attached draws more density away, than the ethyl aspect pushing in, hence on both fronts, the molecule is polar. NOW in comparison to petroleum ether, well, petroleum ether, is usually short chained alkanes, either pentane, hexane, and is a fraction of refined oil. THE UPPER LIGHTER FRACTION, and not to be compared to say an actual ether, such as diethyl ether. So on that basis, pet ether is non polar. NOW if you meant diethyl ether. ETHYL ACETATE is still more polar, as the ether has one oxygen between methylene groups, or perhaps two methyl groups. and yes, there is an electronegative difference between that oxygen and the carbon next to it, but an ether is flanked by two carbon groups, hence the polarity of the molecule is minimized.
Why pentane and hexane will dissolve in each other in all proportions?
Pentane and hexane are both nonpolar molecules with similar molecular structures, so they have similar intermolecular forces (London dispersion forces). This allows them to mix together in all proportions because the attractive forces between molecules of the same kind (hexane-hexane, pentane-pentane) and between different kinds (hexane-pentane) are relatively similar in strength.
Is heptane the same as hexane?
No, heptane and hexane are not the same. Heptane has seven carbon atoms in its molecular structure, while hexane has six carbon atoms. Both are hydrocarbons, but they have different chemical compositions and properties.
Is petroleum the same as oil?
Oil and petroleum are the same thing.
Is natural gas the same as petroleum?

Is ethyl acetate or diethyl ether is same?
No, ethyl acetate and diethyl ether are not the same. Ethyl acetate is an ester commonly used as a solvent, while diethyl ether is an ether used as a solvent and a reagent in chemical reactions. They have different chemical structures and properties.
Is there a difference between vaseline and petroleum jelly?
no vaseline is brand name of petroleum jelly
What is the difference between petrol and petroleum?
Petrol is gasoline and is refined by the process of fractional distillation, and petroleum is crude oil i.e. it is in it's raw form in a whole, before fractional distillation.
What is the empirical formula of hexane?
The molecular formula of hexane is C6H14. The empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula after division of all subscripts in the molecular formula by the highest integer that produce an integer quotient from each subscript in the molecular formula. Therefore, the empirical formula of hexane is C3H7.
Is petroleum the same thing as zinc?
No Zinc is a metal Petroleum is a fossilbased hydrocarbon.
