Explain how the different chemical compounds in crude oil are separated?

Crude oil is separated into different chemical compounds through a process called fractional distillation. This process involves heating the crude oil to high temperatures, then cooling it in a fractionating column. The different compounds in crude oil have different boiling points, allowing them to be separated based on their molecular size and weight.

Used to separate substances from crude oil?

Fractional distillation is used to separate substances from crude oil based on their boiling points. Crude oil is heated, and its components vaporize at different temperatures. As the vapors rise through a fractionating column, they condense at different levels to be collected as different products such as gasoline, kerosene, and diesel.

Is crude oil different from fuel?

Yes, crude oil is a raw natural resource extracted from the ground, while fuel refers to refined products derived from crude oil such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Crude oil undergoes a refining process to separate and extract different components which are then used as fuel for various purposes.
