What is the importance of hydrocarbons in daily life?
(N/A) $1$. Fuel: Hydrocarbons like $LPG$,$CNG$,$LNG$,and kerosene are essential fuels used in our daily life.
$2$. Polymers: They serve as raw materials for the manufacture of polymers such as polyethene,polypropene,and polystyrene.
$3$. Solvents: Higher hydrocarbons like turpentine and kerosene are used as solvents in paints.
$4$. Industrial Synthesis: They act as starting materials for the synthesis of various dyes,drugs,and other chemical compounds.
Thus,hydrocarbon compounds are of immense importance in our routine life.
