About this document
Cracking vs. Fractional Distillation by Enock Semwezi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Cracking is a chemical process that breaks large hydrocarbons into smaller ones, producing alkanes and alkenes under high temperatures and in the presence of catalysts. In contrast, fractional distillation separates crude oil into its components based on boiling points and volatility, without involving chemical reactions. This process is endothermic and relies solely on heating and condensing mechanisms.
