Crude oil question (6 point)
How crude oil is separated into fractions in terms of structure
Why the fraction can be separated this way
- mention fractional distillation
- heated so crude oil evaporates
- mention different boiling points
- mention different chain length
- mention intermolecular forces
- requires more energy to separate if the intermolecular force is higher
suggest 3 reasons why bitumen is not used as a fuel
viscous
not flammable
too high boiling point
