What compound is found in Crude oil?
Crude oil is composed of a mixture of hydrocarbons, which are organic compounds made up of hydrogen and carbon atoms. This mixture includes compounds such as alkanes, cycloalkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, and more, depending on the specific composition of the crude oil.
Why do fats have more energy than carbohydrates and proteins?
Fats have more energy because they contain more carbon-hydrogen bonds, which store more energy than the oxygen-hydrogen bonds found in carbohydrates and proteins. When these bonds are broken during metabolism, fats release more energy in the form of ATP, making them a more efficient energy source.
Does hydrogen burn or help things burn?
Hydrogen is an explosive gas- remember the Hindenberg! This is regular Hydrogen not the radioactive variety- the H-bomb so powerful it needs a regular nuclear bomb to act as a detonator, a double-flash indeed.
What causes sweet crude oil to became sour?
Sweet crude oil can become sour due to the presence of sulfur compounds which can develop over time or be introduced during production. These sulfur compounds can react with the oil to create hydrogen sulfide, giving the crude oil a sour smell and making it more corrosive. Sour crude oil typically has higher sulfur content than sweet crude oil.
Why do fuels not all release the same amount of energy when they burn?
The amount of energy released when a fuel burns depends on its chemical composition. Fuels with more carbon and hydrogen atoms per unit mass release more energy when burned because they undergo more exothermic reactions during combustion. Additionally, factors like the presence of impurities and the efficiency of combustion can also affect the amount of energy released.
what chemical in crude oil is more volatile oxygen carbon hydrogen or nitrogen?
Crude oil contain compounds of O, C, H, N and not chemical elements.
Where does the energy of crude oil and gas come from?
The original source of oil is the dead life forms. The hydrocarbons from the life forms are usually buried so that they do not combine with oxygen. When the hydrocarbons become more saturated with hydrogen, they form oil.

What has more energy water or hydrogen?
That depends exactly what type of energy you are talking about.
Does muscle burn more calories then fat?
Yes, and this is because fat doesn't burn calories; it is more of a storage for energy
What is more- potential energy or kinetic energy of an electron in hydrogen atom?
Both are equal.
Why do fats have more energy than carbohydrates and proteins?
Fats have more energy because they contain more carbon-hydrogen bonds, which store more energy than the oxygen-hydrogen bonds found in carbohydrates and proteins. When these bonds are broken during metabolism, fats release more energy in the form of ATP, making them a more efficient energy source.
If water consists of two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen why does it not explode?
Water does not ordinarily burn because of the massive amount of energy required to break the chemical bond between Hydrogen and Oxygen. If enough heat is added to break apart this bond, then the Hydrogen will burn.
Why can't we make water?
We can, by igniting hydrogen and condensing the vapours. But it takes more energy to produce hydrogen!
Whatever you burn on Earth goes out eventually so why does the sun burn for ever?
Your basic instinct and insight are good; things that burn eventually run out of fuel. For this reason, the sun will in fact NOT burn forever. It will 'burn' for another 5 billion years or so. But the sun does not burn in the same way that wood burns in your fireplace. The sun produces its energy on the atomic level by way of the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. See link for more.
What are the two main gases that stars are made of?
Our star I can tell you more about, but Alas Until we can burn ourselves up in other stars (which are at least light years away at the closest) I can only tell you the Chemicals the sun uses. The sun is about 75% Hydrogen, and just about the rest is mostly Helium. Which there are so plentiful amounts that It can burn for a very long time, at least until there is no more fuel. O.o
Does a flashlight burn more energy?
No, a flashlight does not "burn" energy. It consumes energy from its batteries or power source to produce light. The amount of energy consumed depends on the type of flashlight and its brightness settings.
