yes thats the answer because cracking increases the quantity of pretroleum fuels while reforming increases the quality
Let's see why the correct answer is C.
Here's why:
* Cracking and Fuels:
* In the petroleum industry, "cracking" breaks big, heavy oil molecules into smaller, lighter ones.
* These smaller molecules are what we use for gasoline, diesel, and other engine fuels. So, cracking helps us get more of those fuels.
Here's why the other options aren't the best fit:
* A. gives purer products:
* While cracking is part of the refining process, it doesn't directly "purify" the products. Other processes do that.
* B. yields more lubricants:
* Lubricants are made from heavier oil fractions, not the lighter ones produced by cracking.
* D. yields more asphalt:
* Asphalt is also a heavy residue, not a product of cracking.
* E. yields more candle wax:
* Candle wax is a product of heavy oil fractions, and is not increased by cracking.
So, the best answer is C. yields more engine fuels.
