Alkylation combines

  • A.isobutane with light olefins
  • B.two aromatic rings into one larger ring
  • C.hydrogen with olefins to saturate them
  • D.heavy gas oil into a lighter product

Answer: A

Correct answer: isobutane with light olefins

Alkylation reacts isobutane with propylene or butylenes over a strong acid catalyst to give a branched paraffin of high octane and low volatility. Its value is that it converts two low-value light streams into a premium gasoline blendstock with no aromatics and no olefins - which is exactly what tightening fuel specifications have made scarce.
