Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The solvent for the removal of asphalt that is a mixture of high molecular weight hydrocarbon needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the compounds which are mainly composed C and H atoms. The branch of chemistry that deals with preparation, reactions, and properties of organic compounds. The molecular formula of organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols. Hydrocarbons are one of the simplest organic compounds which are mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen.
