because it repels water!
Paraffin a flammable, whitish, translucent, waxy solid consisting of a mixture of saturated hydrocarbons. Paraffin is soluble in any kind of hydrocarbon-based paint thinner or mineral spirits.
Kerosene or Kerosine is neither. It neither belongs under the Aliphatic or Aromatic branch of Organic chemistry. It's a different branch of Chemistry called Hydrocarbon Derivatives (which contain other organic compounds such as alcohol, ethers and amides). Kerosine fits under a different branch of organic chemistry.Aliphatic hydrocarbons are compounds in organic chemistry that consist of carbon and hydrogen and are non-aromatic.
1/2 gallon ideally

Paraffin a flammable, whitish, translucent, waxy solid consisting of a mixture of saturated hydrocarbons. Paraffin is soluble in any kind of hydrocarbon-based paint thinner or mineral spirits.
No, paraffin wax is a mixture of hydrocarbons
Paraffin is a mixture, not a chemical compound.

Mixture of hydrocarbon compounds
A liquid mixture of complex hydrocarbon compounds is called petroleum. I think this is the best Answer I can put it as right now.
hydrocarbon
No, a hydrocarbon is a compound that contains only hydrogen and carbon, air is a mixture that contains a few hydrocarbons.
Cheese wax is a mixture of paraffin, Vaseline and microwax mixed together. Other waxes used are pure paraffin and beeswax.
Yes. Dinp is a hydrocarbon. DINP is typically a mixture of chemical compounds consisting of various isonoyl esters of phthalic acid.
No because it prevents them from reacting with air
