This can be answered on many different levels. They both burn and give out a good amount of heat is probably the simplest. In more scientific terms, they both contain chemical energy which is released when they burn. More practically, they both ignite easily and burn quite cleanly.
What else can I help you with?
Is ethanol soluble in kerosene?
ethanol (i.e ethyl alcohol) is a polar solvent. So ethanol is soluble in water. But Kerosene is non-polar solvent. Like dissolves like. This phenomenon is used here. Kerosene can dissolve non-polar solvents like naphthalene, which is a non-polar solvent.
Does Ethanol release more Energy than Kerosene?
Kerosene releases more energy then ethanol but it is harder to put into engines that run on gasoline already.
What color is kerosene?
Kerosene, as with other liquid fossil fuels can be dyed in various colours
Why is ethanol used in gasoline?
Ethanol is used in gasoline because it is a renewable and cleaner-burning alternative to traditional gasoline. It helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. Additionally, ethanol can increase the octane rating of gasoline, which can improve engine performance.
What is volatility of kerosene?

Why is kerosene used as jet fuels instead of petrol?
It is not kerosene but a kerosene type fuel used in jets or aircraft. Jet fuel is a mixture of various hydrocarbons. Jet fuel must be free from water contamination. Synthetic Jet fuel and Jet biofuels are used in different airways. Chemically they are not exactly same as kerosene or petrol.
What are the different types of bio fuels used?
the only ones I'm aware of are ethanol-gasoline and biodiesel
What fuels a plane?
The fuel that planes use is called Kerosene.
Fuels made from this can be used in diesel cars?
There are kerosene-based fuels (such as JP8), which can be used in diesel motors. There are also biofuels, which can be made from grain-based products, that'll work in diesel motors.
What alcohol used in thermometers?
[1] The alcohol in alcohol thermometers tends to be pure ethanol, isoamyl acetate, kerosene, or toluene. [2] Ethanol tends to be the most widely used, because of its low cost and its low hazard potential in the event of breakage.
Are Petrol and kerosene oil whice type of energy these fuels possess?
Petrol and kerosene oil are both fossil fuels that contain chemical potential energy. When burned, these fuels release energy in the form of heat and light.
