Petroleum is mixture of hydrocarbon molecules. The molecules are of different sizes and have a different number of carbon atoms. The smaller molecules have fewer number of carbon atoms and have lower boiling points, on the contrary the larger molecules have more number of carbon atoms and have higher boiling points. In its raw state petroleum is difficult ignite and is of very little use. Only if the crude petroleum is 'refined' appropriate fuels and chemicals can be derived.
