Destilación Fraccionada - Química Orgánica

The video explains how crude oil, a valuable resource, is a mixture of hydrocarbons with varying chain lengths. It describes the process of fractional distillation, which separates crude oil into useful fractions based on boiling points. The video details how the fractionation column works, with a thermal gradient allowing different hydrocarbons to condense at various levels. It also highlights the uses of different fractions, such as gasoline, kerosene, and bitumen. By the end, viewers should understand the importance of fractional distillation in processing crude oil.
