Recall all the possible products of the incomplete combustion of alkanesHydrogen, carbon monoxide and waterCarbon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and waterCarbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and waterCarbon dioxide and waterQuestion 14 of 22 Loading... 15. Name the greenhouse gas released from burning hydrocabonssootwater vapourmethanecarbon dioxideQuestion 15 of 22 Loading... 16. Explain why carbon monoxide is dangerous to humansIt is poisonous because it blocks surfaces for gas exchangeIt is poisonous because it blocks blood flowIt is poisonous because it poisons the bloodstreamIt is poisonous because it reduces the capacity of the blood to carry oxygenQuestion 16 of 22 Loading... 17. Explain how crude oil is separated into fractionsCrude oil is separated by fractional distillation. Crude oil is heated and the oil evaporates. It then goes into the tower. As the vapours rise up the tower the temperature falls. Different sized fractions condense at different heights because they have different boiling points. Smaller molecules condense high up in the tower. Larger molecules condense low down in the tower. Then the fractions are collected.Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation.
