and their uses Exploration milestone-an overview. INTRODUCTION: By definition petroleum is a generic name for hydrocarbons‚ including crude oil‚ natural gas liquids‚ natural gas and their products. Petroleum comes from the Latin petra meaning rock or stone & oleum meaning oil. Petroleum occurs in the earth in combination of any of the four states: gas‚ liquid‚ semisolid‚ and solid. Chemically‚ petroleum is a mixture of carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen (called hydrocarbons) with minor amounts of nitrogen

3: Problems & Answers Week 4: Feb 2- 6‚ 2009 1. Consider a gas that occupies 1.00 dm3 at a pressure of 2.00 bar. If the gas is compressed isothermally at constant external pressure‚ Pext‚ so that the final volume is 0.500 dm3‚ what is the smallest value Pext can have? Calculate the work involved using this value of Pext. Solution For compression to occur‚ the value of Pext must be at least as large as the final pressure of the gas. P1 = 2.00 bar‚ V1 = 1.00 dm3‚ V2 = 0.500 dm3‚ P2 = ? = 4

Key Questions Lesson 1 1. One argument against continuing research on the atom is that the cost continues to increase at an alarming rate‚ and the benefits seem to be declining. Whereas quantum chemistry experiments as early as 80 years ago were very cheap and yielded considerable practical results‚ now very few if any practical results are emerging‚ but the costs of experiments continues to increase. On the other hand a common argument for the continued

free to move and conduct electricity. Electrolysis of the alumina/cryolite solution gives aluminium at the cathode and oxygen at the anode. 4Al3+ + 12e- 4Al (aluminium metal at the (-) cathode) reduction. 6O2- - 12e- 3O2 (oxygen gas at the (+) anode) oxidation. Aluminium is more dense than the alumina/cryolite solution and so it falls to the bottom of the cell where it can be tapped off as pure liquid metal. The overall reaction is aluminium oxide aluminium

Gas analysis techniques Terms for gas analysis techniques Concentration The term concentration describes the amount of a substance‚ expressed as mass‚ volume‚ or number of particles in a unit volume of a solid‚ liquid‚ or gaseous substance e.g. alcohol in beer or oxygen in air. Different units are in use to describe concentration in gases: Mass concentration Concentration expressed in terms of mass of substance per unit volume [g substance/m3 gas volume] ¢ Volume concentration Concentration
