The fuel is burnt, either in a fire to hear the area, or in a stove to cook or warm the room, or in a boiler to warm the place or, to produce steam to drive a turbine to generate electricity.
Chemical energy is stored in fossil fuels, resulting from the organic matter that underwent decomposition over millions of years. This energy is released when the fossil fuels are burned or combusted.
Fossil fuel are burnt to release HEAT
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
Nonrenewable fossil fuels, like oil and coal, store a lot chemical energy in the bonds between its molecules. When these fossil fuels are burned, the chemical energy is released.
Fossil fuels represent chemical energy, a form of potential energy. This energy was stored in the hydrocarbon molecules and can be released by oxidation (burning).
Fossil fuels represent chemical energy, a form of potential energy. This energy was stored in the hydrocarbon molecules and can be released by oxidation (burning).
When fossil fuels are burned, chemical energy in the fuels is converted into heat energy and thermal energy is released. This process produces carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases as byproducts, contributing to air pollution and climate change.
Fossil fuels are formed from organic matter that originally obtained its energy from the sun through photosynthesis. This organic matter stored the sun's energy in the form of chemical bonds, which is released as chemical energy when the fossil fuels are burned. So, the chemical energy in fossil fuels can be traced back to the sun's energy.
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
Fossil Fuels =)
No. Alternative energy means energy sources other than fossil fuels.
