Gasoline is a yellow transparent liquid. Here is a brief introduction to gasoline: 1. Basic information: Gasoline is a volatile and flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid obtained through distillation and cracking of petroleum, which can be used as fuel. It appears as a transparent liquid, is flammable, and has a distillation range of 30°C to 220°C. 2. Composition: The main components are C5 to C12 aliphatic hydrocarbons and naphthenic hydrocarbons, along with a certain amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. Gasoline has a high octane number (anti-knock combustion performance) and is classified into different grades such as 89, 90, 92, 93, 95, 97, and 98 based on the octane number. Starting from January 2012, the gasoline grades 90, 93, and 97 were revised to 89, 92, and 95.
