Craking is the process whereby complex molecules are broken down into simpler molecules :

Example :

C36H74 + H2 >> C2H6 + C34H70

Reforming is a process used to convert molecules having low octane ratings into hight- octane liquid products

Example

CH3(CH2)6CH3 >> CH3C(CH3)2CH2CH(CH3)CH3

What ia the difference between hacking and cracking?

Hacking refers to testing and improving computer systems for security purposes, while cracking involves breaking into systems for malicious intents. Hacking is often done ethically to identify vulnerabilities and enhance security, while cracking is illegal and done to exploit weaknesses for personal gain.


What is the difference between cracking an egg by it being dropped and cracking it between our fingers?

Cracking an egg by dropping it typically involves applying force from a height, which can cause the shell to break upon impact with a hard surface. In contrast, cracking an egg between our fingers applies pressure directly to the shell, which can lead to a more controlled break. The latter method allows for greater precision and minimizes mess, while dropping the egg can result in a more chaotic situation with potential shell fragments scattering. Additionally, the forces involved in each method differ; dropping relies on gravitational force, whereas finger cracking uses manual pressure.


How do oil companies use cracking isomerisation and reforming to process fractions from crude oil?

Cracking, isomerisation and reforming are usually used to make smaller branched alkanes from the long-chained alkanes. Small branched alkanes can not pack as closely together, so they have weak Van der Waals forces. It means that the products will have low boiling points and are better fuels as they burn more easily.

Does cracking knuckles cause arthritus?

No, you don't get arthritus from cracking your knucles. You're not actually cracking it, you are just "poping" your bones together
