Answer:

C: francium-221

Explanation:

First of all to get a broader perspective, every isotope of francium usually undergoes decay to form astatine, radium, or radon.

Now, Francium-223 and francium-221 are it's only isotopes that occur in nature.

However, francium-221 is the one that undergoes alpha decay to produce astatine-217.

"Crude oil dustillation"
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation. Crude oil is heated to vaporize the different hydrocarbons in a tank which is cool at the top and hot at the bottom. The vapours then rise and the different hydrocarbons condense at their specific boiling points, allowing them to be separated.

Lighter products, such as butane and other liquid petroleum gases (LPG), gasoline blending components, and naphtha, are recovered at the lowest temperatures. Mid-range products include jet fuel, kerosene, and distillates (such as home heating oil and diesel fuel).
