Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

Petroleum (also known as crude oil or simply oil) is a fossil fuel that was formed from the remains of ancient marine organisms. Millions of years ago, algae and plants lived in shallow seas. After dying and sinking to the seafloor, the organic material mixed with other sediments and was buried.

Answer 2

Petroleum

the world 'petroleum' has organ ated from the Greek word 'petra' meaning rock and 'oleum' meaning oil. it is the oil that is obtained from rocks it is also know as crude oil and is is found trapped between the layers of impervious rocks andar ground petroleum is a dark coloured viscous fluid and lighter than water. it is drilled out crude oil Wells it is a mixture of different hydrocarbons and undergoes fractional distillation to yield petrol, kerosene ,Diesel and other chemicals used in the manufacturing of plastics and pharmaceuticals.

Formation

petroleum was formed from organisms living in the sea these organisms died, their bodieso Saturday at the bottom of sea and got covered with layers of sand and clay. over millions of years absence of air high temperature and high pressure transformed and the dead organisms into petroleum and natural gas microorganisms decomposed the organic matter in anaerobic condition which god converted into a waxy material card kerogen. corrosion by converted into liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon

Natural Gas

it is mostly methane, which burns completely producing carbon dioxide and water vapour.

CH4 + 2O2---------➝ CO2 + 2H2O + Heat

it is obtained from the remains of plants and animals that live in c millions of a year ago it is an efficient and convenient fuel and can be easily transported through pipes in our homes and in factories. in India, such pipelines are being used in Vadodara and Delhi it is stored under high pressure as compressed natural gas ( CNG).

it is used for power generation and for running automobile engines it also has a significant used in manufacturing of many chemicals.

hope it helps !
