They employ around 80000 people in locations around the globe. ExxonMobil’s history goes back to the 1870 when John D. Rockefeller and partners formed the Standard Oil Company. By 1878 Standard Oil controlled 95% of the U.S. refining capacity. This had been achieved by giving cut throat competition to the competitors

Petroleum contains many alkanes and alkenes and has several impurities when removed from underneath the earth. Refining petroleum entails both the removal of these impurities and also the separation of petroleum into its various components. The specific method for this separation in crude oil is known as fractional distillation. Fractional distillation is carried

thus the eco system crumbles. Americans have a need to travel far and to do so quickly. Because of this we use automobiles and these in turn present a host of environmentally unfreindly issues. The tapping of oil is a mar on the environment. The refining of the oil into gas and safe oil for auto’s creates smog. The transportation of the materials in order to distribute them creates smog through the use of tires and exhaust creates more environmental problems. The use of electricity to distribute

Tantalum Tantalum is a shiny‚ silvery metal which is soft when is pure. It is almost immune to chemical attack at temperatures below 150 C. Tantalum is virtually resistant to corrosion due to an oxide film on its surface. Applications Tantalum finds use in four areas: high-temperature applications‚ such as aircraft engines; electrical devices‚ such as capacitors; sirurgical impants and handling corrosive chemicals. It is rarely used as an alloying agent because it tends to make metals brittle
