DIFFERENT HYDROCARBON –
DIFFERENT BP (BOILING POINT)
Different hydrocarbons have different numbers of
carbon atoms.
DIFFERENT HYDROCARBON –
DIFFERENT BP (BOILING POINT)
Different hydrocarbons have different numbers of
carbon atoms.
The higher the number of carbon atoms the
higher its boiling point.
Therefore, Longer chain hydrocarbons have a higher
boiling point than shorter ones.

The hydrocarbon
vapours now rise up
the column.
Hydrocarbons
condense (turn back to
a liquid) when they
reach their boiling
point.
FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION- HOW IT WORKS.
The remaining
hydrocarbons
continue moving up
the column. These
now condense when
they reach their
boiling points
FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION- HOW IT WORKS.
Important to
remember: Very long
chain hydrocarbons
have very high boiling
points
FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION- HOW IT WORKS.
Important to
remember: Very short
chain hydrocarbons
have very low boiling
points. These do not
condense.
FRACTIONS
Remember we said that Fractional distillation
separates a mixture into a number of different
parts, called fractions.
FRACTIONS
Propane
Butane
Petrol
Diesel

COMBUSTION AND THE ENVIRONMENT.
COMPLETE COMBUSTION
Complete combustion occurs when
there is enough oxygen – for
example when the hole is open on
a Bunsen burner.
