Answer 1

Geese!
1) gasoline
2) methane
3) oxygen
4) coke and steam
5) cracking
6) N2 - producer gas IS CO
7) natural gas
8) Carbon
9) fractional distillation
10) wood and coal
11) producer gas
12) coal gas
13) natural gas
14) petroleum
15) distillation

Answer 2

1) Gasoline
2) Methane
3) Carbon monoxide
4) Coke and steam
5) Cracking (fractional distillation just separates the fractions)
6) Producer gas in the US is called Town gas. CO2 and N2 are common impurities. In the UK Producer gas is mostly Carbon monoxide, Nitrogen (N2) from the air dilutes its value (impurity).
7) Natural gas
8) Carbon (Usually coal or coke).
9) Cracking
10) Coal and coke
11) Producer gas
12) Coal gas
13) Natural gas
14) Petroleum
15) Polymerization (also called unification although it is usually a dimerization) for Lp gas and Butanes mostly.
