How many pro ucts
do we get from crude oil?
From eggs, a hen can expect just one product—chicks. But
from crude oil, Imperial refines 679 different products, ranging
from weed killers to heavy asphalts. And that is not all—

for plastics and synthetic rubber.
Oil plays a large and growing part in our everyday living.
How many of these questions about it can you answer?
