How does burning less fossil fuels reduce the amount of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere?
When you burn fossil fuels to make enrgy, carbon dioxide is released. So, if you burn less fossil fuels, less carbon dioxide is released.
By what process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
What process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
What gets released when you burn fossil fuels?
Carbon dioxide is released.
When people burn fossil fuels is the carbon released as oxygen?
No, it is released as carbon dioxide and water.
Why is more carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere?
because we have a greater demand for fossil fuels and when you burn fossil fuels a lot of carbon dioxide is released
What is Carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by?
Many things contribute to Carbon dioxide being released. Cars, animals, burning fossil fuels, etc.
What pollutants are released from fossil fuel combustion?
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides are the pollutants released from fossil fuel combustion.
How do fossil fuels release carbons into the atmosphere?
As fossil fuels are made up of Carbon and Hydrogen. This burns in oxygen (in air) to form Carbon dioxide and Water, so the carbon dioxide is released into the air
What energy is converted to kinetic energy when a fossil fuel is burned?
The chemical energy was stored in the fossil fuel millions of years ago when the Sun's energy was used in photosynthesis to separate carbon and oxygen atoms from atmospheric carbon dioxide. The carbon was used by the plants to form tissues while the oxygen was released into the air. It's this energy that is released by the formation of carbon-oxygen atomic bonds as carbon dioxide is generated when the fuel is burned.
When fossil fuels are burned which gas is released into the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
When fossil fuels burned what happened?
When fossil fuels are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the environment. This can influence the greenhouse effect and increase global warming. Coal is the fossil fuel that produces the most carbon dioxide emission.
