A finite (non-renewable) resource found in rocks, used to produce fuels and other important chemicals, made from fossilised remnants of ancient plankton
Hydrocarbons
Molecules made up of only hydrogen and carbon atoms, differ in size which changes the properties
Crude oil
A mixture of lots of different hydrocarbons that are not chemically combined, majority of the compounds are hydrocarbons
Fractional distillation
Separates crude oil into simpler more useful mixtures: RefineryGases,Bottled gas, Gasoline,Naphtha,Kerosene,Diesel, Fuel Oil, Lubricating Oil, Bitumen
Fractional distillation
Separates components based on their different boiling points
