Alkanes & Crude Oil quiz Loading... 1. What is a fuel?A fuel is a liquid used in electrolysisA fuel is a substance that contains chemical energyA fuel is a substance that is used to power vehiclesA fuel is a substance that, when burned, releases heat energyQuestion 1 of 22 Loading... 2. Explain how crude oil is separated into fractionsCrude oil is separated by fractional distillation. Crude oil is heated and the oil evaporates. It then goes into the tower. As the vapours rise up the tower the temperature rises. Different sized fractions condense at different heights because they have different boiling points. Smaller molecules condense high up in the tower. Larger molecules condense low down in the tower. Then the fractions are collected.Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation.

Describe how nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide contribute to acid rainNitrogen oxides created in hot car engines and sulfur dioxide released when fossil fuels are burned combine with water in the atmosphere to form acidic particlesNitrogen oxides created in hot car engines and sulfur dioxide released when fossil fuels are burned combine with water in lakes and seas to form acidic solutionsNitrogen oxides created in hot car engines and sulfur dioxide released when fossil fuels are burned combine with each other to form acidic solutionsNitrogen oxides created in hot car engines and sulfur dioxide released when fossil fuels are burned combine with water in the atmosphere to form acidic solutionsQuestion 4 of 22 Loading... 5. Do larger molecules have higher or lower boiling points than smaller molecules?It depends on which atoms are presentHigherLowerSize doesn\'t affect boiling pointQuestion 5 of 22 Loading... 6.

How does sulfur dioxide form in car engines?The metals the car is made from contain some impurities of sulfur and when the engine heats up, some sulfur dioxide is formedPetrol includes the impurity sulfur, and when the petrol combusts some sulfur dioxide is formedWhen the petrol combusts the sulfur dioxide impurities are left behindAcid rain causes some sulfur impurities to get into the car engine, and when the petrol combusts some sulfur dioxide is formedQuestion 7 of 22 Loading... 8.

A student has been asked to draw all the alkene isomers of C₄H₁₀ and draws the following. Which of the following statements about the student's diagram is correct?The student is wrong. The molecule on the right is just normal butane. Bending the end round doesn't change that.The student is wrong. There is another isomer called 1,2-dimethylethane.The student is correct and deserves a tuck-shop voucher.The student is wrong because she makes no reference to the numbers of protons and neutrons in the molecules.Question 9 of 22 Loading... 10.
