Suffix for Alkanes (no functional group) -ane
Functional group and suffix for Alkenes C=C double bond; suffix is -ene
methane display formula CH4
Propane display formula CH3 CH2 CH3
,ethene display formula CH2 = CH2
ethanol display formula CH3 CH2 OH
subsititution reaction Reaction where one atom is swapped with another atom
combusion reaction Chemical reaction involving burning
what is crude oil a mixture of hydrocarbons
, fractional distillation of crude oil In the fractionating column, it is hot at the bottom and cool at the top
Crude oil is transported into the fractionating column and heated into
vapours that rise and evaporate
Vapours of Hydrocarbons with high boiling points will immediately turn
into liquid at the bottom of the column where they will be tapped off
Vapours of Hydrocarbons with low boiling points will rise up the column
and condense at the top where they will be tapped off
Hence, different fractions will condense and be tapped off at different
heights along the fractionating column according to their boiling points
order from top to bottom of oils in crude oil refinery gases
gasoline
kerosene
diesel
fuel oil
bitumen
use of refinery gases bottled gas
use of gasoline fuel for cars
