Answer / bhavani
The alkanes from pentane (C5H12) to octane (C8H18) are
refined into petrol, the ones from nonane (C9H20) to
hexadecane (C16H34) into diesel fuel and kerosene (primary
component of many types of jet fuel), and the ones from
hexadecane upwards into fuel oil and lubricating oil.

Answer / anil chowdary
There is no "formula" for diesel fuel. It is made up of the
bits and pieces from a refined petroleum process blended
together to meet certain criteia (like cetane number). In
general it is the petroleum fractions with boiling points
between 200 °C (392 °F) and 350 °C (662 °F). The materials
are largely parraffins and cycloparaffins and aromatics. The
average molecule in a diesel fuel contains 10 to 15 carbon
atoms.
