Give the uses of hydrocarbons with examples.
(N/A) $1$. Fuel used in our daily life: $LPG$,$CNG$,$LNG$,and kerosene are mixtures of hydrocarbons.
$2$. Manufacture of polymers: Hydrocarbons are used to produce polymers like polyethene,polypropene,and polystyrene.
$3$. Solvents: Higher hydrocarbons like turpentine and kerosene are used as solvents for paints.
$4$. Starting materials: They serve as raw materials for the manufacture of many dyes and drugs.
Thus,hydrocarbon compounds are very important in our routine life.
