Catalyst is not the right word to use. A catalyst speeds up the reaction and has nothing to do with the boiling point. If you want to reduce the boiling point of diesel you would have to take out more impurities through further refining.
Petrol has a boiling point of 38-204 degrees Centigrade, while diesel has a boiling point of >150 degrees centigrade.
Petrol, i guess because it has a lower boiling point than diesel
water max boiling is 100 c. and diesel max boiling is 365 c.
Diesel fuels have different chemical compositions, which affect the boiling point. Conventional diesel fuels usually have a boiling range of about 149 degrees C to 371 degrees C.
Distillation, Gasoline has a lower boiling-point, so it will separate-out first.
If we pressurize the liquid ( same like pressure coocker) its vapour pressure increases. As the vapour pressure increases boiling point increases and visa versa. Also to reduce the boiling temperature we can add another liquid with a lower boilng point in it so that its boiling point reduces. Exact boiling point can be determined with the known boiling poin t and ratios of the different liquids.
When pressure is reduced the boiling point will also reduce
salt or sugar would lower the melting point and raise the boiling point. The salt or sugar would reduce the partial pressure of water in the solution (essentially more competition), effectively raising the boiling point.
If it happens below the boiling point it is called evaporation. At the boiling point it is boiling.
Boiling is the phase where the boiling occurs. The point at which the boiling occurs is the boiling point.
You don't. Either add more to up the boiling point or reduce.
Diesel fuel and petrol/gasoline are similar; both of them are mainly mixtures of hydrocarbons. However, Diesel is considerably less volatile because it the compounds in it are of higher molecular weight; they have a higher boiling point ... and also a higher freezing point.
