Are turbines more efficient than gasoline engines?
By a generous estimate, they can be about 30% more efficient than a gasoline engine. I assume you mean "are turbines more efficient than piston engines". Depends on the running conditions. At full load, steady running conditions, turbines are better than piston Engines. At varying loads, turbines often do quite poorly.

Is gasoline a pure or substance or a mixture?
Gasoline (also called petrol) is a mixture of many different complex hydrocarbon molecules that have a roughly similar boiling point. Commercial gasoline also has other substances added to it to improve its performance in internal combustion engines, or to reduce the pollution resulting from its use in those engines.,
