Gasoline

Many of know what gasoline is because we use about everyday so we must all be familiar with it. Gasoline is made from crude oil pumped from the ground which is called petroleum. This liquid contains hydro carbon and it turns out that hydro carbon molecules have many different properties of gasses.  An example would be if a carbon atom CH4 is the lightest in  the chain known to methane. Gasoline is have many types of boiling points due to the levels of hydro carbon . an example would be heating up the crude oil to different temperatures to obtain the gasses needed which is called oil refining. The first four gases on its chain are CH4 methane C2H6 ethane C3H8 propane C4H10 butane. Chains up to C18H32 are liquids at room temperature and chains above C19 are solids at room temperature. Gasoline is used every where from our cars to machines that created our civilization. Gasoline is common upon everyone house old uses like the stove, dryer, boiler which is all powered by natural gasses and electricity. Gasoline has been used in the industrial revaluation , factory's creating more jobs which expanded the use of gas. A negative outcome on gasoline is that it releases carbon in our atmosphere which effects our atmosphere. another negative out come is the pollution it releases it can cause harm to our body's and even have sicknesses.

I choose to do my research on gasoline because its a natural resource that we all depend on. This natural resource is limited time only which have a big price and control over our every day life's. Gasoline is an interesting product because of its benefit on human civilization which can create more comfort in our lives. We accept the risk of burning fossil fuels to make our life a little easier while harming our environment in the long run. In addition to harming our environment gasoline is a big part of our world and its limited, we should find better and safer power alternatives to sustain our energy use .
