: [[Crude Oil]] has [[energy]] in its [[Chemical Potential Energy Store|chemical potential energy store]] which can be transferred into a [[Thermal Energy Store|thermal energy store]] by [[combustion]].
==Key Stage 4=Power====Meaning===: '''Crude oil''' is a [[mixture]] of different [[hydrocarbon]]s, mostly [[alkane]]s, formed in an [[anoxic]] environment over millions of years from the remains of dead sea creatures trapped in the [[sediment]] at the bottom of the sea. ===About Crude Oil===: '''Crude oil''' is known as a [[Fossil Fuel]] can be used to provide .: '''Crude oil''' is a [[powerNon-renewable Energy Resource|non-renewable energy resource]] directly buy burning so once it in homes, cars, trainsis used it cannot be replaced within our lifetime. planes : Modern technology relies heavily on '''crude oil''' as both a [[fuel]] and in furnaces or it a [[feedstock]] for producing [[Plastic (Material)|plastics]].'''Crude oil''' can provide power be [[Separating Mixtures|separated]] by generating electricity.[[Fractional Distillation|fractional distillation]] into different 'fractions' which have different applications:*[[Natural Gas]]*[[Liquid Petroleum Gas]] ([[LPG]])*[[Petrol]] ([[Gasoline]])*[[Kerosine]]*[[Diesel]]*[[Lubricating Oil]]*[[Bitumen]]
