Bitumen is the most viscous among petrol, diesel, gas, and kerosene. Viscosity refers to a fluid's resistance to flow, and bitumen is a heavy, tar-like substance with a high viscosity. In contrast, petrol and gas are lighter and flow more easily, while diesel has a moderate viscosity, higher than petrol but lower than bitumen. Kerosene sits between petrol and diesel in terms of viscosity.

What is more flammable petrol diesel gas kerosine bitumen?

Petrol and kerosene are more flammable than diesel, gas, and bitumen. Diesel and gas require higher temperatures to ignite, while bitumen is a thick, viscous substance with a higher flash point, making it less flammable than the other options.

Is kerosene more viscous than petrol?

Yes, kerosene is generally more viscous than petrol (gasoline). Viscosity refers to a fluid's resistance to flow, and kerosene, being a heavier hydrocarbon, has a higher viscosity compared to the lighter hydrocarbons found in petrol. This difference in viscosity affects their handling, combustion properties, and applications in engines and fuel systems.


Which is more viscous diesel or petrol?

Diesel has a much higher viscosity than petrol (gasoline). It is less refined and contains more oil to lubricate and cool the combustion chamber in a diesel engine.

What is the difference between Petrol Diesel Kerosene and gasoline?

"Petrol" is what the British (and Australians, Irish and New Zealanders) call gasoline. Petrol is actually a contraction of the word petroleum which is the feedstock. So there's no difference between petrol and gasoline. Gasoline, kerosene, and diesel fuel are different "fractions" of petroleum distillate. Gasoline is the lowest-boiling/most volatile of the three, kerosene is intermediate, and diesel is the highest-boiling/least volatile. Jet fuel is actually Jet Kerosene. The Britsih usually call kerosene "paraffin". In the US, paraffin is an even higher fraction of petroleum distillate that is solid at room temperature and is generally referred to as "wax".


Why is diesel more viscous than petrol?

Because it's made lower down on the 'cracking tower' . -The higher gas is vented off, the less viscous it will be.
