Does fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?
Fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?
How is the chemical energy in fossil fuels related to the sun's energy?
The potential chemical energy in fossil fuels and food was stored by plants that converted the sun's radiant energy into chemical energy.
What is the composition of fossil fuels?
difference between bioenergy and fossil energy
How is energy transformed when fossil fuels are used?
Fossil fuels can be burned to release the potential chemical energy stored millions of years ago.The process of burning fuels is called Combustion.
How do fossil fuels store energy?
Fossil fuels contain the chemical energy that plants and algae obtained from sunlight and then stored in sugars. Just as energy chemical energy is stored in sugars, chemical energy is stored in fossil fuels. All it takes to release it is enough heat and oxygen to cause the fuel to burn.
Where did the fossil fuels get there energy?
Ultimately, all energy only comes from the Sun. This is how the energy is transferred: Sun>plants>animals. Therefore, fossil fuels obtain their energy from plants itself and animals when they've consumed plants.
Fossil fuels is what energy?
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
How can you obtain fossil fuels?
fossil fuels come from non-renewable (will not last forever) energy resources, these non-renewable energy resources (fossil fuels) come from CRUDE OIL, COAL, NATURAL GAS, NUCLEAR, sometimes wood and biomass - this depends on how it is extracted
Is kinetic energy stored by fossil fuels?
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
An energy-rich substance formed from the remains of organisms is?
Fossil Fuels =)
What problems harnessed nuclear energy from fossil fuels?
Nuclear energy does not come from fossil fuels
Are fossil fuels alternative energy?
No. Alternative energy means energy sources other than fossil fuels.
What are the advantage of burning wood to obtain energy over burning fossil fuels?
Its easier to obtain wood than liquid explosive dinosaurs
What energy source can you use instead of fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are exhaustible. Electric energy is an alternative.
What sources of energy are most damaging to the environment?
Fossil fuels.
Are fossil fuels used to produce energy?
All fuels by definition are used to produce energy, fossil fuels are no exception. (Shorter answer: Yes.)
What do thermal energy and fossil fuels have in common?
When fossil fuels are burned, some of the chemical energy stored in them is converted into thermal energy.
