Crude oil is the by product of decaying and fossilisation of animal and plant matter
the Melting point depends on different types of Crude oil.. Crude oils are of different types ..so there is no specific Boiling point
The value of 1 kg of heavy crude will be between 1.0 to 1.0714 liters. Definitions of heavy oil vary. Generally, a range of 10 degrees to 20 degrees API is one qualifier, and the viscosity of the oil is a second qualifier. Specific gravity (SG) = 141.5/(131.5 + API) where API = degrees API density. So, 20 degrees equals SG of 0.9333. This is equal to 0.9333 kg/ liter, so 1 liter = 1/0.933 = 1.0714 kg. For 10 degrees API, SG = 1. See related links for discussion of heavy oil and tars.
You heat crude oil in a refinery, and this will separate the various products almost as a distillery. Around 20 to 30 percent of the crude ends as basis for production of petroleum. This is the reformed, chemicals added making the petrol you use in your car. So to produce 10 gallons of petrol to your car, you need around 50 gallons of crude, and produce gasoil (that can be used as automotive diesel) - say 15 to 25 gallons, and kerosene, that can be used as jet fuel - 10 to 20 gallons, and some heavy tar and 10 to 20 gallons of light nafta. Petrol is one of the more complex processes in a refinery.

People who do that are really damaging the earths crust. oil is made of petroleum it is the liquid form coal is the soild form and gas is the gaseous form. These are answers from my exhibition which is on in exactly 15 days from today the 29th of April 2008.I hope you learn to spell petroleum before then

In 1977, the average price for a barrel of crude oil was $14.40 (about $60.00 in today's dollars).

Specific gravity of crude oil is how light or heavy it is compared to water. If the API gravity is less than 10 it will float in water.

Diesel is the heaviest distillate of crude oil and comes out of the bottom of the distillation towers in an oil refinery. I refer you to the Channel 5 programme "How Do They Do It" Episode 10, still available on "Demand 5", where Robert Llewellin explains it all.
In recent years, around 20-25% of crude oil and around 10-15% of refined petroleum products produced in the USA are typically exported. However, these percentages can vary due to market conditions and trade agreements.
From each 42-gallon of crude oil, about 19.5 gallons of gasoline is produced.
The most viscous fraction in crude oil is the residue left over after refining, known as bitumen or heavy oil. It is thick and heavy, with a high viscosity due to its high content of long-chain hydrocarbons.
