    of oil that F1 cars always use is Synthetic and vegetable. Vegetable oil is known to have extremely high VI that doesn’t change much with temperature compared to oil with a low VI. In addition, vegetable oil have extremely high flash point so you could say it’s around 326 degrees c (610 degrees F). On their hand the flash point for mineral oil is around 200 degrees C (392 degrees F) which leads to the engine of the F1 car exploding because of temperature in the engine boiling the mineral oil to its

    The purpose of experiment five was to create synthetic banana oil by the process of Fischer esterification. This process is when an acid, like acetic acid, is combined with an alcohol, which in this case was isopentyl alcohol. The resulting product was isopentyl acetate, but Fischer esterification processes are known for not going to completion, so some starting material may be present in the final product. The resulting product should contain no more than 10% isopentyl alcohol and no more than 2%
