Answer:
reduces
Explanation:
According to Boyle's law, when the pressure of a gas increases at constant temperature the volume reduces.
Boyle's law states that "the volume of fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to the change in pressure if the temperature is constant".
- It suggests that at constant temperature, if pressure increases, temperature reduces.
Mathematically, it is expressed as;
P1 V1 = P2 V2
P and V are pressures
1 and 2 are initial and finals state.
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).
