FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION (FD) Hydrocarbons have different boiling points. CAN be solid, liquid OR gas at room temp. (Hydrocarbons, henceforth to be known as HC)
Small HC = few carbon atoms, LOW BOILING POINTS, gases. HC with between 5 und 12 Carbon atoms = USUALLY LIQUIDS. Large HC = many Carbon atoms, HIGH BOILING POINTS, solids. Because of different boiling points, substances in Crude Oil separated by FD.
