Hello Aspirant!

Greetings!


Actually  chemical composition of kerosene is quite complex,  it is a complex mixture of following  :-

  • paraffins (55.2%),
  • naphthenes (40.9%), and
  • Aromatic Hydrocarbons (3.9%).

So Actually ,Kerosene tend to contain Hydrocarbons that have anywhere from 10 to 16 carbons in the chains.


thankyou
