*NO GOOGLE* ColiPedia : Oil. Veg vs Motor

[Ghost Utmost]

Was wondering.

Why are vegetable oil and crude oil both considered "oil". Technically, not no ABC analogies (read: smart dumb nikka shyt).

Yes I COULD just Google it, but can somebody break it down off the dome, no Google.

Challenge. Honor system.

Crude is a raw material from fossil fuels which have gone under millions of years of transformation. But lots of things out here make oil, you can make oil out of hemp seeds or peanuts breh. I dunno the specifics of the molecules involved tho.

just off the top of the dome...

oil is a very dense form of carbon in liquid form.
it don't matter if it came from old dead shyt or if it's a byproduct of living shyt.

 

[Julius Skrrvin]

i thought it was just cause oil is also a general term for a viscuous liquid.

carbon is a very versatile element. it can combine in ways that make totally different substances even if they're similar in some respects

Nah, coconut oil is good stuff. I kinda remember googling some info about it but I can't remember it all.

uh i backup all my memory on google

but as kool g said it's a general term use for slippery shyt.

Because they are both viscous long chain hydrocarbons that have some properties and uses in common like lubrication and flammability

Thanks everyone.

I feel like I know the answer now. I am very tempted to Google it...
