Progress Check I can predict the properties of named fractions of crude oil, by using information about their carbon length. I can explain the properties of crude oil, including boiling point, viscosity, flammability, colour and volatility. I describe the process of fractional distillation. I can identify that fractional distillation is used to separate crude oil mixture into fractions.

17
Boiling point of fractions Each fraction of crude oil contains a mixture of different compounds. This means that the boiling point of the fraction is not a fixed temperature but a range. < 0 20-200 20-180 180-260 260-340 370-600 >330 N/A LPG gasoline naphtha kerosene lubricating oil diesel fuel oil residue FractionBoiling point (°C)
18
Volatility and flammability Fractions that have a low boiling point evaporate easily. The easier a fraction evaporates, the more volatile it is. When fractions burn, they react with oxygen in the air. Generally, the smaller the molecules in a fraction, the more volatile and flammable the fraction. Fractions that ignite and burn easily are flammable. The more volatile a fraction is, the easier it mixes with air. This means the fraction ignites and burns easily.
19
What is viscosity? Some fractions of crude oil are thin and runny. Other fractions are thick and sticky. The runniness of a liquid is called viscosity. For example, the residue from fractional distillation has a very high viscosity (it is viscous) and cannot be easily poured. Gasoline has a low viscosity and pours easily. What is the relationship between the length of a hydrocarbon chain and the viscosity of a fraction? The longer the hydrocarbon chains in a fraction, the more viscous the fraction will be.
20
Molecule size and viscosity Why are fractions with large hydrocarbon molecules more viscous than fractions with small hydrocarbon molecules? The longer chains of large hydrocarbon molecules are easily entangled. Smaller molecules have shorter chains and are less likely to become entangled.
21
Colour of fractions The colour of a fraction depends on the size of the molecules it contains. As the molecules get smaller, the colour of the fraction becomes lighter, from dark brown to light brown, orange/yellow and transparent. decrease in size of molecules
