2. Crude oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons
  1. Properties change as chain gets longer
    1. Short - low B.P
    2. Long - high B.P
    3. Strong covalent bonds - C & H
    4. Intermolecular forces diff. molecules
    5. Heated - extra energy
      1. move - overcome forces - gas
      2. covalent - stronger // don't break
  2. Separated by FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION
    1. Groups w/diff B.P
      1. Fraction - similar B.P

    2. POLYMERISATION
      1. Monomers join to make polymer
        High pressure - polymer chains
        Strong rigid - high-density polyethene

        Window frames
        Plastic bags
        Milk bottles
        Close - high density
        Spread - low density
        Weak - slide over // stretch easy // low MP
        Strong - cross links // hard stretch // high MP
        Increase length
        Add cross-linking agents
        Plasticisers (reduce forces)
        Crystalline (no branches)
3. NANOPARTICLES
  1. Natural - sea spray // combustion
    1. Modification
      1. Plastic sport equip. - more durable, stronger, lightweight

      3. Health effects not fully understood
C3
1. Tectonic plates move away exposed mantle rises and solidifies
  1. Crust magnetised - swap direction
    1. Polarity
    2. Reversed polarity
    3. Pattern determine age
      1. Fossils
      2. Shells & ripples
      3. Grains
    4. Contains minerals
      1. Limestone - CaCo3 // sedimentary // shells or erosion // cement through pores
      2. Carbon - fossilisation // high temp & pressure
