    cracking process requires detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis of the hydrocarbon composition of its oil and fraction. In this analysis‚ their fractional composition‚ saturated vapor pressure‚ density and antiknock rating will be investigated. By knowing the qualitative and quantitative composition of the gasolines‚ the content of n-paraffin‚ isoparaffin‚ aromatic‚ naphthene‚ and olefin (PIANO) groups of hydrocarbons as well as of oxyorganic compounds (alcohols and ethers) used to raise the

    Everything you need to know about hydrocarbons INTRODUCTION: organic chemistry Organic chemistry is the chemistry of compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen. The element carbon has a special role in chemistry because it bonds with other carbon atoms to give a vast array of molecules. The varity of molecules is so great that we find organic compounds in many common products we use‚ such as gasoline‚ medicines‚ shampoos‚ plastic bottles‚ and perfumes. The food we eat is composed of different

    unrefined petroleum product composed of hydrocarbon deposits. It is a fossil fuel‚ meaning that it was made naturally from decaying plants and animals. Crude oils vary in color‚ from clear to tar-black‚ and in viscosity‚ from water to almost solid. Crude oil can be refined to produce usable products such as gasoline‚ diesel and various forms of petrochemicals and as such‚ are a useful starting point for many different substances. Crude oil is also a naturally occurring hydrocarbon. Hydrocarbons are molecules

    REFINING PETROLEUM The crude oil obtained from earth’s crust needs to be refined before using it. It is done by a method called fractional distillation which involves separation of two or more liquids having different boiling points. The refining is done by changing the liquid into its gaseous state and then cooling the gaseous mixture at controlled temperatures such that at a time only one of the vapours having boiling point I liquefies first. This is generally done by a special tower called

    surface‚ called crude oil or petroleum. Millions of years ago‚ crude oil was created from fossil fuels of dead animals and plants that sank into the ocean’s bottom underneath rocks‚ dirt‚ and dust. Over time‚ the seclusion of corpses caused heat and pressure to increase instigating the bodies to decompose; and due to lack of oxygen‚ the remains formed mixture of chemical organic compounds made of hydrogen and carbon molecules called Hydrocarbons. Petroleum consists of hydrocarbon chains each has its own
