Emulsification of Oil Prepared for: Mrs. Elena Gallagher By: Anna Villanella March 25‚ 2014 Oil is a nonpolar molecule. Polar molecules have charged groups or atoms. Nonpolar molecules have no charged groups or atoms. Polar molecules‚ like water‚ are good solvents for other polar molecules. This means they molecules that react with the water disperse into the water. Nonpolar molecules don’t disperse in water because nonpolar molecules and polar molecules don’t interact. How exactly can we discover

What is crude oil? Crude oil is a naturally occurring liquid found inside certain rocks trapped beneath the Earth’s crust. It is dark and sticky‚ classified as a hydrocarbon‚ or rather mixture of hydrocarbons. We separate them in order to make something useful during a process called fractional distillation. Since it is highly flammable and can be burned to make energy‚ it is used as a major fuel source on our planet. This oil is a fossil fuel‚ what means that there is a limited supply

Fats and oils - 344 Iodine value of an edible oil INTRODUCTION Fats and oils known as triglycerides contain long chain hydrocarbons with carboxyl groups (COOH groups). These fatty acids are classified into the number of double bonds present in the fatty acid. When the carbon atoms in these chains are bounded to the maximum possible number of hydrogen atoms‚ the triglyceride is said to be saturated. When one or more double bonds exist between carbon atoms in the chain‚ less hydrogen exists
