Cracking of hydrocarbons
a reaction where larger saturated hydrocarbon molecules are broken down into smaller, more useful hydrocarbon molecules
Crude oil is a finite resource. Petrol and other fuels are produced from it using fractional distillation. Cracking is used to convert long alkanes into shorter, more useful hydrocarbons.

Combustion of alkanes
a chemical reaction with oxygen in which alkane is converted into carbon dioxide and water with the release of heat energy
happens between a fuel and oxygen (oxidant), giving out gaseous products, also termed as smoke
Alkane is referred to as a saturated open chain hydrocarbon consisting of carbon-carbon single bonds.
Hybridisation
concept of mixing two atomic orbitals to give a degenerated new form of orbitals with the same energy levels
