In catalytic cracking, the___________________?

Correct answer: C. Gasoline obtained has very high aromatic content

  • A. Gasoline obtained has a very low octane number
  • B. Pressure & temperature is very high
  • C. Gasoline obtained has very high aromatic content
  • D. Gasoline obtained has very high amount of gum forming compounds

Explanation

Catalytic cracking promotes dehydrogenation, cyclisation and aromatisation, so its gasoline generally has a high octane number and appreciable aromatic content. The low-octane and high-gum descriptions are not characteristic advantages of catalytic cracking.
