Is uranium an example of a fossil fuel?
I believe the term "fossil fuels" is used for things that burn, in a chemical reaction - like coal and petroleum. Also, "fossil fuels" implies that the fuel is the remainder of fossils - as is believed to be the case with petroleum and coal.I believe the term "fossil fuels" is used for things that burn, in a chemical reaction - like coal and petroleum.

What percent of the worlds energy is natural gass?
Natural gas accounts for appropriately one-quarter of the global energy consumption. It is the fastest-growing fossil fuel in use today and is projected to last only about sixty more years.
What energy source will tidal energy replace?
Tidal energy has the potential to replace non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) for generating electricity. It provides a consistent and predictable source of renewable energy that can help reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and decrease carbon emissions.
Which of these is not a renewable or reusable resource... corn... sunlight... wood... or natural gas?
Natural gas. Natural gas takes millions of years to make, as do other fossil fuels of its kind. We cannot make more natural gas -- we can only find it. Corn can be grown, woodcan be grown, and sunlight shines down constantly.
Information about natural gas?
Natural gas is known to chemists as methane, for which the chemical formula is CH4. Natural gas is a product of the slow alteration of buried plant matter, which is also true of petroleum and coal. Natural gas burns very cleanly, producing only water and carbon dioxide as combustion products. It is a colorless and odorless gas, but when it is piped into people's homes for use in gas stoves or furnaces, a small amount of a strongly smelling compound (mercaptan) has been added so that you can tell if you have a gas leak.
Is helium a fossil fuel?
No, the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) have been underground for hundreds of millions of years. The only gas that is a fossil fuel, natural gas, is mostly methane (CH4).
How can you cut down your use of fossil fuels?
Use natural gases instead of fossil fuels are only use fossil fuel if it very urgent
What is a solid fossil fuel form from plant remains?
Ancient plant remains are buried and compacted until they form fossil fuels. There are 3 types of fossil fuels: Natural Gas Oil and Coal; the only solid fossil fuel, which is what you're looking for.
Are fossil fuel reusable?
No, fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) can only be used once. For this reason they are called non-renewable sources of energy.
Is oil the only fossil fuel or are there any others?
Oil, or more precisely petroleum, is one of 3 types of fossil fuel, the others being coal and methane (methane is also known as natural gas).Peat is also classified as a fossil fuel because its renewal rate is so very slow it is considered to be essentially non-renewable
Why will using hydrogen as a fuel lead to reduction in the use of fossil fuels?
Because hydrogen when burnt releases only water as a byproduct. Fossil fuels release pollution in the form of carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, causing global warming. So hydrogen is a much better fuel than fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas).
What are the types of fossil fuel?
The three main types of fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal is a solid fossil fuel formed from plant material, while oil and natural gas are liquids and gases formed from decaying marine organisms. All three types of fossil fuels are non-renewable resources.
Is geothermal energy a fossil fuel?
No. Fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas. Geothermal energy is a clean renewable energy powered by the heat from the centre of the earth. It is the only renewable energy whose power does not come from the sun.
Is there a car that runs on only fossil fuels?
Gasoline and ordinary diesel fuel are both fossil fuels, so almost all cars run only on fossil fuels.
What is the second cleanest burning fuel?
Of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) oil is the second cleanest. Coal is the dirtiest, and natural gas (methane (CH4)) is the cleanest burning fuel, emitting the smallest amount of carbon dioxide of all the fossil fuels.
Are fossil fuel found everywhere?
yes but only where dead organism
Which is not a example of a renewable resource?
Iron
