A. Aromatics have higher specific gravity than paraffins
B. Gross calorific value (GCV) of petrofuels is equal to (12400 – 2100 ρ2) where, ρ is the specific gravity of the fuel at 15.5°C
C. Heavier petrofuels have higher GCV on weight basis (i.e., Kcal/kg) but lower GCV on volume basis (i.e., Kcal/litre)
D. Higher specific gravity of petrofuels means higher C/H ratio
Correct Answer: Heavier petrofuels have higher GCV on weight basis (i.e., Kcal/kg) but lower GCV on volume basis (i.e., Kcal/litre) ✔
