Resumo de Recurso
Crude oil
Crude oil
Crude oil needs to be separated to make useful fuels
Contains different compounds that boil at different temperatures
These compounds burn under different conditions
Compounds: hydrocarbons (molecules only contain hydrogen and carbon)
Separate a mixture of liquids by distillation
Distillation of crude oil produces different liquids that boil at different temp ranges- these liquids are called fractions
Fractional distillation
How crude oil is separated
The larger the size of the molecule, the higher the boiling point of the hydrocarbon
Crude oil is vaporised and fed into a fractionating column (hot at the bottom and cooler at the top)
The vapours move up the column; getting cooler as they go up.
The hydrocarbons condense to liquids when they reach the level/tray that is at their boiling point
Hydrocarbons with the smallest molecules have the lowest boiling points (collected at the top of the column)
Low viscosity, very flammable, burn with clean flames- produce little smoke (useful fuels)
Short-chain hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons with the largest molecules have a higher boiling point (collected at the bottom of the column)
High viscosity, not very flammable (useful when making roads etc)
Long-chain hydrocarbons
