During the fractional distillation of crude oil, the fraction that distills at 200 - 2500 ${}^0$ C is

Answer Details

The petroleum fractions that distill at 200–250°C are naphtha and kerosene,

• Bitumen: has a boiling point value of 5250 ${}^0$C
• Gasoline: Has a boiling range of 40–200°C
• Diesel: Has a boiling range of 250–350°C
• Fuel oil, paraffin, lubricants: Have a boiling range of 300–370°C
• Residue, crude oil: Has a boiling point of more than 370°C
