Difference between Liquefied petroleum gas and Oil

Liquefied petroleum gas vs. Oil

Liquefied petroleum gas or liquid petroleum gas (LPG or LP gas), also referred to as simply propane or butane, are flammable mixtures of hydrocarbon gases used as fuel in heating appliances, cooking equipment, and vehicles. An oil is any nonpolar chemical substance that is a viscous liquid at ambient temperatures and is both hydrophobic (does not mix with water, literally "water fearing") and lipophilic (mixes with other oils, literally "fat loving").

Similarities between Liquefied petroleum gas and Oil

Liquefied petroleum gas and Oil have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Fuel oil, Gasoline, Heating oil, Hydrocarbon, Kerosene, Oil refinery, Petroleum.
