Carbon is the main element found in coal, limestone, and petroleum. However, limestone also contains calcium carbonate and some impurities, while petroleum contains hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane, and propane.
Petroleum is a naturally occurring complex mixture of hydrocarbons. It does not have an atomic number like individual elements, as it is a combination of different elements such as carbon and hydrogen.
No, paraffin is not an element. To be an element, a substance must have all the same type of atom. Once it has this, it can go on the Periodic Table. So, as paraffin has many different types of atom in it, it's not an element.
Petroleum jelly is made from petrolatum, a mixture of hydrocarbons derived from petroleum. The name "petroleum jelly" comes from the fact that it is derived from petroleum, not necessarily from being an actual jelly made from oil.
No, petroleum jelly does not contain latex. Petroleum jelly is made from petroleum, while latex is derived from the milky sap of rubber trees. They are two different substances with different chemical compositions.
petroleum is the basic element of gasoline
Petroleum is not an element and therefore has no atomic weight!
It is both
Petroleum is a mixture.
No, it is a molecule. Elements are stand-alone atoms.

Petroleum is a fossil fuel, containing many organic compounds; burning of petroleum release thermal energy. Uranium is a radioactive metal; fission of uranium release a great quantity of nuclear energy.
Petroleum is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons of various molecular weights and other liquid organic compounds.
