currently. We must first start by knowing that there are three major forms of fossil fuels: coal‚ oil‚ and natural gases. We know we burn coal- it is burned for energy‚ in addition‚ it helps power plants that produce other viable resources‚ oil like petroleum after compounded makes various other resources such as gasoline‚ and natural gases some of us use on an everyday basis when turning on hot water or gas stoves. With the previous knowledge‚ we can see that fossil fuels are all around

What is cracking? Cracking is the name given to breaking up large hydrocarbon molecules into smaller and more useful bits. This is achieved by using high pressures and temperatures without a catalyst‚ or lower temperatures and pressures in the presence of a catalyst. The source of the large hydrocarbon molecules is often the naphtha fraction or the gas oil fraction from the fractional distillation of crude oil (petroleum). These fractions are obtained from the distillation process as liquids

Benzene is a special case of conjugation that leads to an especially stable bonding arrangement. The benzene ring consists of six sp2 hybridized carbon atoms in a regular hexagon. Each carbon forms two σ-bonds with adjacent carbons‚ and a third σ-bond with a hydrogen atom. The 2p orbital on each atom is available for π-bonding. Interaction between the p orbitals on the six carbon atoms forms a conjugated system of π-electrons. Molecules with this bonding arrangement are called aromatic molecules

released during photosynthesis. Humans are also dependent on ancient products of photosynthesis‚ known as fossil fuels‚ for supplying most of our modern industrial energy. These fossil fuels‚ including natural gas‚ coal‚ and petroleum‚ are composed of a complex mix of hydrocarbons‚ the remains of organisms that relied on photosynthesis millions of years ago. Thus‚ virtually all life on earth‚ directly or indirectly‚ depends on photosynthesis as a source of food‚ energy‚ and oxygen‚ making it one of
