Gasoline /ËÉ¡Ã¦sÉliËn/, also known as petrol /ËpÉtrÉl/ outside North America, is a transparent, petroleum-derived liquid that is used primarily as a fuel in internal combustion engines. It consists mostly of organic compounds obtained by the fractional distillation of petroleum, enhanced with a variety of additives.
Gasoline is a complex mixture of, well ... stuff. The thick crude oil that comes out of the earth bears little resemblance to the gasoline powering your Porsche. In order to make crude safe and useful for cars, refiners must add, alter, and remove hundreds of chemicals.
