Is nitrogen oxide a fossil fuel?
No. Most nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere are a product of combustion of some fossil fuel in air, when the heat of combustion is sufficient to activate reactions between atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen, but the oxides are not present in the fuel itself.
What product is released into Earth's atmosphere through the combustion of fossil fuels?
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water vapor.
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.
When fossil fuels burn what are the reactants?
The burning of fossil fuels are a combustion reaction. The reaction for the combustion has the reactants of propane (C3H8) and oxygen (O2). The combustion reactions products are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
What is wrong with fossil fuels?
Fossil fuel is so much a part of our life that it is hard to call it "wrong" but there should not be wasteful usage of these fuels. The primary fossil fuels are oil, gas and coal.The earth contains a limited quantity of these fuels. Many of the deposits of these fuels we will never be able to tap because they are too remote, small or expensive to recover. Offshore deposits of oil may lie in water too deep to make commercial discoveries.As we use fossil fuels, we are forced to explore more remote parts of the world to find more fossil fuels. As a result the cost of fossil fuels increases.We obtain energy from fossil fuels by burning them, and the products from combustion can contaminate the air. There is a greenhouse effect from this combustion which contributes to global warming. Combustion of gasoline in our cars releases a number of pollutants that can be harmful to our health, particularly in cities. In addition, acid rain can harm our forests.I have included 3 related links, but you can find much more information on the internet on future challenges of fossil fuel use.
Which product of combustion contributes most to the greenhouse effect?
Carbon dioxide is a product of the combustion of fossil fuels and this is contributing most to the accelerated greenhouse effect.
What are the primary product of the complete combustion of fossil fuel?
Carbon Dioxide and water are the primary combustion products of fossil fuels.
Why does acid rain effect Denmark?
because of fossil fuel combustion

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using fossil fuels to create soot?
Soot is unburned carbon, it is in itself a loss of combustion efficiency and not a desireable product.
What human activity contributes to the greenhouse effect?
Deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
