What is the relationship between burning of fossil fuels and carbon dioxide?
Burning fossil fuels (combustion) releases carbon dioxide. As carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, presently contributing to global warming, this is why the world is moving away from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
How does carbon get inside fossil fuels?
At some point before the fossil became a fossil, a plant removed carbon from the air (carbon dioxide) and it became part of the plant that became a fossil.
What is the main pollutant created form the burning of fossil fuels?
Carbon dioxide (CO2).Carbon Dioxide. (CO2)
What pollutants form when fossil fuels burn?
Methane, Carbon dioxide and Carbon monoxide
What does fossil fuel mix with to create carbon dioxide water and heat?
Fossil fuel mixes with pressure to create carbon dioxide, water, and heat. This process takes millions of years to create which severally limits the prolonged usage of fossil fuels.
What is the relationship between burning of fossil fuels and carbon dioxide?
Burning fossil fuels (combustion) releases carbon dioxide. As carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, presently contributing to global warming, this is why the world is moving away from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
Is carbon dioxide released by fossil fuel formation?
No, formation of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.Burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide.
What causes carbon dioxide?
fossil fuels and breathing causes carbon dioxide :)
What is the connection between the manufacturing of cement and the concentration of carbon dioxide?
Portland cement is produced by heating limestone (calcium carbonate) to drive off carbon dioxide forming quicklime (calcium oxide). This is one connection.If the heat needed to drive the aforementioned reaction is produced by burning fossil fuels, which is often the case, then that is another source of carbon dioxide.
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.
How does burning fossil fuels affect the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by increasing it.
Which belongs in the blank space of the chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels below fossil fuel oxygen gas?
Fossil fuel + Oxygen gas > Carbon dioxide + water + heat (apex)
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 role does the combustion of fossil fuels have in the carbon cycle?
It increases the carbon dioxide in the oceans. It adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Which energy sources produce carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide?
Burning coal (a fossil fuel) releases carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide.
World's carbon dioxide emission from the use of the fossil fuel 2002?
The worlds carbon dioxide emissions from the use of fossil fuels has decreased since 2002. The United States has had the largest decrease in carbon dioxide emissions.
