What else can I help you with?
How can you burn fossil fuels in a way that you good for the environment?
You cant, once fossil fuels is burned, the atoms in the fuel is split and produces greenhouse gases
What is good about burning fossil fuel?
The good thing is that is produces a lot of energy that can be utilized in a proper manner to give great output.But fossil fuels are depleting now hence its bad to use fossil fuels.
What statement about fossils fuels is not true?
Fossil fuels are clean burning and will not be bad for the environment. We will never run out of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are good for our health. These are a few that are not true about fossil fuels.
Why is solar energy good to fossil fuels?
because solar energy is renewable (never gets used up), solar energy is energy from the sun, it will never run out....fossil fuels such as oil coal and gas are getting used up fast, they are non renewable and so it is a big issue....so using solar energy is good to fossil fuel because then the fossil fuels will not get used up.
Name 3 ways that fossil fuel convert into other forms of energy and expain?
Fossil fuels can be burned in power plants to generate electricity, which can then be used to power homes and businesses. Fossil fuels can be used to produce heat for industrial processes such as manufacturing and refining. Fossil fuels can be converted into transportation fuels like gasoline and diesel, which power vehicles such as cars, trucks, and airplanes.
What would be a non renewable resource?
Oil, almost all fossil fuels. Although a good alternative fuel for your car is vegetable oil.
What uses fossil fuels?
Most forms of transport use fossil fuels.Most forms of electricity generation use fossil fuels.All common fuels (coal, oil, natural gas, petroleum) are fossil fuels. Coal is a fossil fuel and it makes most of the electricity in the world.As processes and equipment can generally be fitted out to burn either the fossil fuel or the non-fossil equivalent the answer becomes "Anything can use fossil fuel".Hydrogen, bodiesel, digestor methane, bagasse (and similar agricultural waste), alcohol and wood (including paper etc.) are about the only non-fossil fuels.
Are fossil fuels used to make paper metal or glass?
Indirectly, yes. Fossil fuels are still a popular fuel source for many such factories, although you would be less likely to see it used in a paper factory. If you are looking for an economic good which is directly related to petroleum (the most commonly altered fossil fuel) then anything plastic, and of course petroleum jelly would be on your list.
Are all fossil fuels made up of carbon and hydrogen only?
By definition raw fossil fuels are not required to be purely composed of hydrocarbons. A hydrocarbon is by definition, just hydrogen and carbon; however in fossil fuels impurities are present that are often removed in refining. Some forms of fossil fuels have little or no hydrogen present (Coal for example is nearly all Carbon). It is not uncommon to find oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and other mineral and chemical components in a fossil fuel outside of pure hydrocarbons. Refineries are designed to take raw fossil fuels (oil for example) and adjust those various components to meet some requirement. A good example is in gasoline and diesel fuels where octane, heptane, butane and sulfur levels can be controlled.
What percentage of cars runs on fossil fuels?
a good 95%
How do fossil fuels burn?
Fossil fuels include oil, gas, coal, and all other products that are derived from fossil fuels and used as an energy source. Fossil fuels release energy when they are burned. Take your car for example. You put gas in your car, and your engine burns the fuel and converts the potential energy of the fossil fuel into heat energy, and the heat energy into kenetic energy, and your car goes. Although pg&e is now using some renewable energy sources as well, the majority of our electricity comes from fossil fuels. The fossil fuel is burned, and the energy that is released is converted into electromagnetic energy, another word for electricity. A simpler example is gas, like the gas that is used in a gas stove. The gas is a fossil fuel, and it is burned. When it is burned it releases heat and light.
What are the enviromental effects of using ethanol methanol and propanol as a fuel?
Ethanol, methanol and proponal are all alcohol based fuels. These fuels are good for the environment because they are slower burning fuels, which make it easier to gain energy from. These fuels also do not need fossil fuels to be created, they can be derived from water and carbon dioxide.
