Huge numbers of microscopic animals and plants died and fell to the bottom of the sea‚ which is then covered by mud sediments. These mud sediments got buried by more of them‚ and then started to change into rock‚ which created pressure and increased temperature. This resulted in the deceased plants and animals to heat up and slowly turned into fossils which then turns into crude oil. Since oil is less dense

    Experiment 1: Simple and Fractional Distillation of a Binary Mixture Introduction: In this experiment the aim is to separate two chemicals from a stock mixture (azeotrope) using two different distillation processes. In both methods (simple and fractional) the liquids reach a boiling point‚ the molecules then vaporize‚ separate from the stock mixture and then condense back into liquid form down the to the receiver. Simple distillation works well when the two components boiling points have a large
