List the properties of small chain fractions. |
Low boiling point. |
|
List the properties of long chain fractions. |
High boiling point. |
|
State which fractions are useful fuels. |
Refinery gas, gasoline (petrol), naphtha, kerosene, diesel oil and fuel oil. |
|
Explain the key steps involved in fractional distillation. |
The column is hot at the bottom (350°C) and cool at the top (25°C). Substances with high boiling points condense at the bottom, substances with low boiling points condense at the top. Like distillation, fractional distillation works because the different substances have different boiling points |
