• alkene

• hydrocarbon

• alkane

• saturated

Alkenes have the general formula:

• CnH2n

• CnH2n+1

• CnH2n+2

• CnHn

What process is used to separate crude oil in hydrocarbons with different chain lengths?

• distillation

• fractional distillation

• cracking

• polymerisation

Where in the fractionating column are shorter chain hydrocarbon molecules obtained?

• At the top

• At the bottom

Fractional distillation separates crude oil based on the different __________ of the molecules in the mixture

• melting point

• chemical reactivity

Molecules collected at the bottom of the fractionating column tend to be...

• more viscous, less flammable and less volatile

• less viscous, more flammable and more volatile

• more viscous, more flammable and less volatile

• less viscous, less flammable and more volatile

Molecules collected at the top of the fractionating column tend to be...

• more viscous, less flammable and less volatile

• less viscous, more flammable and more volatile

• more viscous, more flammable and less volatile

• less viscous, less flammable and more volatile
