HEY THERE!!
PETROLEUM IS REGARDED AS BETTER FUEL THAN KEROSENE BECAUSE
In petrol, the combustion of hydrocarbons present is complete and they burn with blue flame.
However, in kerosene, the combustion is not complete.
It burns with smoky flame accompanied by the release of unburnt carbon atoms.
Therefore, petrol is regarded as a better fuel than kerosene.
THANK YOU
