Identify the hydrocarbon compound from following containing carbon atoms in the range of \(\mathrm{C}_{6}\) to \(\mathrm{C}_{8}\) ?
- A Waxes
- B Petrol
- C Diesel
- D CNG
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Petrol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Petrol
Carbon atoms in the range of \(C_{6}\) to \(C_{8}\) in a petroleum hydrocarbon molecule. It's made up of a number of distinct hydrocarbons.
Alkanes (linear or branched) and cycloalkanes are the most prevalent molecules observed. Each type of petroleum has a distinct molecular composition that determines its physical and chemical qualities. Petrol is made from alkanes ranging from pentane \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{5} \mathrm{H}_{12}\right)\) to octane \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H} 18\right)\).
