Lesson: Fractional Distillation of Crude Oil Chemistry

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to describe the use of fractional distillation in separating crude oil and identify the properties and uses of key fractions.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

  • define fractional distillation in the context of crude oil,
  • describe crude oil and its general properties,
  • explain how fractional distillation separates the different components of crude oil,
  • describe and compare properties of crude oil fractions in order to explain their various uses.
