Is diesel saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon?

Kerosene or Kerosine is neither. It neither belongs under the Aliphatic or Aromatic branch of Organic chemistry. It's a different branch of Chemistry called Hydrocarbon Derivatives (which contain other organic compounds such as alcohol, ethers and amides). Kerosine fits under a different branch of organic chemistry.Aliphatic hydrocarbons are compounds in organic chemistry that consist of carbon and hydrogen and are non-aromatic.


How much is the kerosene per 1liter?

Usually kerosene is refined such that it contains less than 100 ppm water. When water is added to kerosene it becomes cludy in appearance. To remove water from hydrocarbons, they are passed over molecular sieves which bind the water to sites on the resins but allow hydrocarbons such as kerosene and gasoline to pass unhindered.


Are gasoil and kerosene compatible?

Gasoil and kerosene are both types of refined petroleum products used for heating and fuel purposes, so they are generally compatible in terms of being used in similar applications. However, it's important to check the specifications and requirements of the specific equipment or system you are using them in to ensure they are suitable for use with either gasoil or kerosene. Any doubts should be clarified with the manufacturer or a professional.

Can diesel or biodiesel be used in kerosene space heaters?

Yes! Diesel, kerosene and gasoline are really the same thing except that they have different octanes. Diesel is the lowest refined gas then kerosene then your different octanes of gas. So, to make the octane the same as kerosene you simply mix the right amount of gas with diesel and voila, you have kerosene. I think u can use a lower octane than kerosene but NEVER put anything of a higher octane than kerosene! Yes!

Why is kerosene used for jet fuel?

Kerosene isn't. However, jet fuel, kerosene, and diesel fuel all are very similar. They're less refined than unleaded fuel, and that reduces the risk of on-board fires, for one. Additionally, they burn at a higher BTU rate than unleaded/petrol fuels.


What is gasoline and kerosene oil made from?

Gasoline and kerosene oil are both fossil fuels derived from crude oil through a process called fractional distillation. Crude oil is heated and separated into different components based on their boiling points, with gasoline and kerosene being two of the refined products obtained from this process.
