1. coal
2. crude oil
3. natural gas
That's an example of chemical energy.
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
energy sources: fossil fuels chemistry: alkanes
Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy sources that can be burned to get energy. The Greenhouse Effect is, in part, the result of burning fossil fuels. In this example, fossil fuels would be a causative agent that creates an effect on the environment, specifically, the Earth's atmosphere.
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
Fossil Fuels =)
No. Alternative energy means energy sources other than fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are: coal methane, petroleum.
Fossil fuels are exhaustible. Electric energy is an alternative.
Fossil fuels.
Fossil fuel in itself is simply an example of potential energy, which can be changed to mechanical energy by burning, thus changing from potential energy to heat energy and then to mechanical energy.
All fuels by definition are used to produce energy, fossil fuels are no exception. (Shorter answer: Yes.)
