Introduction
-
High school chemistry course focuses on many topics. Our main topic today is - Petroleum refining. It is much easier to learn this topic when you are able to watch a video about it and t is really important that you understand the basics of the subject.
-
As I mentioned - video format task example is a great opportunity to understand the topic. While you are watching the video, parallel you can perform the given task and understand how to properly do it.
-
The video is quite short, but covers important information about this topict that will be needed to perform the given task.
Good luck!
