PETROLEUM
Petroleum or hydrocarbons are a mixture of
liquids, solids, semi-solids and gases
occurring naturally in the rocks and are
loosely called as MINERAL FUELS also.
Chemically It is a mixture of Hydrogen and
Carbon with minor amounts of nitrogen,
oxygen, sulphur as impurities.

Types of Petroleum:
1.Crude Oil (Liquid Petroleum) :
These are liquid hydrocarbons that contain varying amounts of dissolved gases, bitumens and other impurities.
It is immiscible in water.
It has less density than water and hence floats on it.
It is soluble in naptha, carbondisulphide, benzene (C6H6) etc.

Types of Petroleum: (cont.)
2.Natural Gas ( Petroleum gas) :
Natural gas is composed of lighter paraffin hydrocarbons (hydrocarbons of the methane series) – the most abundant being methane gas (CH4).
3. Semi, and Solid forms ( Heavy Hydrocarbons and Bitumens) :
They comprise materials such as asphalt, tar, pitch etc.

Components of Petroleum:
The components of crude oil can be classified into:
a.Methane Series : Crude oil belonging to this is also known as paraffin. The 4 main types of paraffins are:
(i) Methane (CH4)
(ii) Ethane (C2H6)
(iii) Propane (C3H8)(iv) Butane (C4H10)

Components of Petroleum: Cont…..
b. Naphthene Series:
Crude oil belonging this is also known as cycloparaffins. The 2 types are:
• cyclopropane (C3H6)
• cyclobutane (C4H8)

MINERALSMinerals are naturally occurring inorganic solid compounds or elements with a definite range of chemical composition.
Quartz - SiO2
Calcite - CaCO3
Gold - Au
Silver - Ag
Rock Salt etc. - NaCl
However, Natural hydrocarbons, coal and water is considered as minerals in the loose sense of the definition of mineral.

GEOLOGYGeology : ‘Geo’ means Earth and ‘logos’ means ScienceGeology : Its is the history of the Earth.
To know history : How it was formed – Origin – Planetary System – Solar SystemWe have to know How old it is – AgeWhat it is made up of – Rocks, MineralsWhat are the physical and chemical properties – Geophysical &
Geochemical What kind of Deformations it has undergone – TectonicsHow the deformation is manifested - StructuresWhat is its future – Geoenvironment

Naptha:
The Hydrocarbons that boil below 250°C and are liquid at standard conditions.
Used as a cleaning fluid and solvent.
It is also used in fertilizer manufacture.
