Different hydrocarbons have different boiling points (and melting points) depending on their molecular size: smaller molecules boil at lower temperatures, larger molecules boil at higher temperatures. This fact is used to refine petroleum by fractional distillation.
Methane has very small molecules and is a gas. Gasoline, diesel fuel, and kerosene have medium size molecules and are liquids. Asphalt has large molecules and is solid.
What else can I help you with?
Which solute is MOST influenced by temperature?
Solubility of gases are most affected by the pressure.
Is gasoline a solid liguid or gas?
Gasoline is a liquid. It is a liquid because the gasoline u pour
Is crude oil in solid form?
I think oil is not a solid. It does not have definite volume.It is a Liquid.
What is the name of a sedimentary rock containing hydrocarbons?
You think probable to a shale.
Why is it difficult to burn hydrocarbons fuels?
I think it because there is more energy needed in order to break down the bonds in the hydrocarbon. Making it less efficient for fuels
Why do you think some hydrocarbons are gases and others are liquids?
hydrocarbons are all compounds that include compounds with the basic components of carbon and hydrogen. They are all combustable. Hydrocarbons can also have additional elements compounded on, but the basic structure includes carbon and hydrogen.
What is the term of liquid and gases flow is called?
You think probable to a current.
Is oil liquid gas or solid?
Oil is a liquid at room temperature. It is a hydrophobic liquid that is less dense than water and typically floats on top of it. Oil can exist in various forms, such as crude oil, which is a mixture of hydrocarbons.
Which solute is MOST influenced by temperature?
Solubility of gases are most affected by the pressure.
When condensation occurs water changes from what?
Gas (water vapor in the air) to liquid (on the surface).
Is gasoline a solid liguid or gas?
Gasoline is a liquid. It is a liquid because the gasoline u pour
Is crude oil in solid form?
I think oil is not a solid. It does not have definite volume.It is a Liquid.
How are the gases in the air seperated?
By cooling, they have different temperatures for becoming a liquid. I think also that this is only done for oxygen, the easiest source.
What do Romans and Greeks thought about solid liquid gases?
I think they thought solid liquid and gases were something like example water fore some thing like that check it up on Wikipedia there the best they have everything and you wont have to go asking around people and waiting for an answer.
What has a higher density liquids or gases?
If you think of density in terms of particles this becomes easier to remember. In which would the particles be closer together? A liquid, so the liquid is denser.
Why do you think gases are cooled to a liquid state for use in rocket fuel?
Gases are cooled to a liquid state for use in rocket fuel because in liquid form, they are more dense and take up less space, making them easier to transport and store. Additionally, liquid fuels provide more consistent performance and are easier to regulate during combustion compared to gases.
Can air get through your skin?
i dun think so that air gets inside through our pores... but yes gases do get in through by being in the liquid state....
