Cracking of crude oil is needed because it gives the item more uses. Also, it provides a larger supply of the item, it is essential to crack crude oil because otherwise we would have run out years ago.
by cracking hydrocarbons which are mostly alkanes, shorter alkanes can be created, which are better at igniting, and less viscous, this means they are usefuel fuels and so more valuble than the fractions containg longer chain alkanes, which there before cracking. (things that were produced before cracking but after the fractional distillation stage, are things like parrafim)
(cracking also produces alkenes which are used for plastics, so it is also useful in that way, but most useful for fuel. This is because there is more demand for fuel and if there was no cracking the demand could not be met)
the method of cracking:
Cracking involves breaking covalent bonds that look like this, C-C, the hydrocarbons are then heated to vaporise them, they are then passed over a hot catalyst. this means cracking is a thermal decomposition reaction. however much energy is needed to break covalent bonds between the atoms.
You are also able to test for alkanes and alkenes is bromine water. If something is unsaturated (alkene) then if it is places in bromine water, which is bright orange it will turn colourless, but if a saturated substance is there (alkane) then it will not chnage. This therefore shows whether a substance is an alkene or alkane.
This shows cracking a hydrocarbon, --> that symbol represents an arrow, symbolising heat being used.

(This is a longer alkane) (alkene, used (Shorter Alkane, used 4 fuels)
for plastics)
The long chain hydro carbons of the crude oil are heated differently depending oh which hydrocarbon you want to get. They are usually heated until turned into vapor then that vapor is passed on to a catalyst which speeds up the reaction to form those hydro carbons that one wishes for.
Larger hydrocarbons are the most abundant compounds found within crude oil, however the smaller hydrocarbons like petrol are the ones with the highest demand.
By cracking larger hydrocarbons oil companies can produce larger amounts of the smaller fractions, from exactly the same amount of crude oil, saving them money and resources.
It is because before the other reactions the molecules of the carbon should be small which makes the reaction much easier
Due to the crude oil present in the petrol, it is really disastrous regarding the high distillation of the fractions of fossil fuels present in the petroleum. =)
so it can suck on a bannana
Examples of unsaturated hydrocarbons, are hydrocarbons with double or triple bonds. For Example: I I I I C=C-C-C- 1-Butene I I I This is an example of an unsaturated hydrocarbon, because it doesn't have as many hydrogens as it could possibly have. If it was saturated (using all the hydrogens it possibly could), it would look like this: I I I I -C-C-C-C- Butane I I I I example is ethane
There are two reasons : 1) Higher calorific value 2) Large chain hydrocarbons have high impurities and when broken into smaller chain compounds their volumetric rate increases. So for the same mass we get a higher volume and this translates into greater profitability.

Hydrocarbons (It is an element made up of only hydrogenand carbon) There are different types of hydrocabons: methane, ethane,propane,butane. If you want to know more go research on google.
Well it effects the high butane smells and taste like crap,ya want to use a pack of matches instead Crack is made of what is left from the process of transform coca leaves in cocaine, the most harmful part, witch is disposable, that's what everybody knows in South America where I came from. Now they mix this very harmful left over with even more harmful ingredients and make the crack, but unfortunately the truth is a taboo in USA, and many think that cocaine and crack ARE THE SAME. There is more about the truth, crack will kill in a period of two years and will make anyone addicted to it at the very first time, the brain will get hooked right away. Too bad we still hear that cocaine and crack are the same.
beacause hydrocarbons cracked are expensive
If the crack in your windshield is not too bad you may want to try a company such as safe light auto where they can fill the minor crack with resign and you won't need to get an entire new windshield. If the crack is too bad then ask them if they can replace your windshield.
If you want to buy a new house but want it to be different to everyone else's then you will want to look for a company who builds custom homes. Where would you find such a company?
MTV Makes Me Want to Smoke Crack was created in 1992.

You do not learn it here. Crack indicates you want to do something illegal to access something the ownere does not want you to access.
Your company.
cos they do
depending on what this person does for a living i would guess he wants to put his you know what inside the hole in your crack. but then again if he is someone who deals with concrete a lot he might want to seal up your butt crack who knows??? :)
yes if you were born a crack baby. Why would you want to know such a ridiculous thing. Common sense should answer that
When the crack you want to hide in is just big enough for you and not for the nasty predator fish to fit into
