Fractional Distillation and Cracking Polymers: Separating Crude Oil

Classified in Chemistry

Written at on English with a size of 1.15 KB.

To separate crude oil into its fractions, we use fractional distillation. This process occurs in an oil refinery. The crude oil is heated to about 350 degrees Celsius in a column that gets cooler higher up. Each fraction will evaporate and rise up the column until it reaches a part that is cool enough to condense it. The liquid goes into its respective tube and is separated from the rest of the crude oil. The smallest alkanes, which have a lower boiling point, will rise to the top. The largest fraction, bitumen, never evaporates and falls as a liquid to the bottom.

Cracking

Crude oil contains a mix of alkanes. Shorter alkanes are the most useful as fuels. We can obtain more shorter alkanes by breaking down the larger ones. This process is called... Continue reading "Fractional Distillation and Cracking Polymers: Separating Crude Oil" »

Chemical Bonding in Dental Materials

Primary Bonds

Factors Influencing Material Properties:

  1. Type of bond between atoms and molecules
  2. Inter-atomic distance
  3. Atomic packing

Matter: Any substance that has mass and occupies space.

Atom: The fundamental unit of matter, consisting of a central nucleus (protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons.

Types of Primary Bonds:
  • Ionic Bond: Attraction between positive and negative ions. Characteristics: Strong, heat resistant, insulator, insoluble in organic solvents, basic bond in ceramics.
  • Covalent Bond: Sharing of electrons between two atoms. Characteristics: Strong, insulator, water insoluble, basic bond in polymers.
  • Metallic Bond: Attraction between positive atomic cores and free electrons. Characteristics: High

in the RUTHERFORDS atomic model, the electrons are orbiting around the nucleous. In the nucleus are the neutrons and protons. BOHRS atomic model, the electrons move in stable orbits around the nucleus. Each orbit present a different number of electrons. How do we identify isotopes? By the name of the chemical element followed by its mass number. The elements in the periodic table are grouped: increasing atomic number(periods), similarity in physical and chemical elements(columns). Crystals are a gorup of atoms ordered ina geometric structure.
