What gas does complete burning of fossil fuels produce?
Complete burning of the hydrocarbon portion of fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide. Since most fossil fuels contains nitrogenous and sulfurous components also, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide would also be produced by complete combustion.
Do combustion reactions release energy?
Yes, the combustion of coal, oil, natural gas, wood, or other fuels that burn in air, all produce energy in the form of thermal energy
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.
What gas occurs while burning fossil fuels?
carbon dioxide and water vapor are the two gases in the correct and complete combustion of any fossil fuel. Other byproduct can occur if the process is not perfect. Carbon Monoxide is one of the chief gases from incomplete burning. Many other gases can be released during the burning process that are not an actual part of the combustion. They vary depending on the fuel.
How do fossil fuels turn into natural gas?
Natural gas is a fossil fuel. Other fossil fuels do not "turn into" natural gas.
What has the author R James Rollbuhler written?
R. James Rollbuhler has written: 'Combustion characteristics of gas turbine alternative fuels' -- subject(s): Synthetic fuels 'Gas turbine alternative fuels combustion characteristics' -- subject(s): Gas-turbines, Combustion
What gas in the air reacts with oil as it burns?
As with most other fuels, oxygen gas is required for the combustion of oil to occur.
What type of combustion fuels produces to the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide?
Fossil fuels
What modes of combustion requires liquid or solid fuels to be converted to the gas phase or vaporized?
Flaming combustion requires liquid or solid fuels to be converted to the gas phase or vaporization.
Which gas released from the burning of fossil fuels is the gas that contributes to global warming?
The gas released from the burning of fossil fuels that contributes to global warming is carbon dioxide (CO2).
What are the advantages of gas fuels over solid fuels?
Gaseous fuels require less excess air (10-30%) for complete combustion than solid fuels (100-150%).{combustion efficiency} Solid fuels, however, cost less per energy unit than gaseous fuels. {from less than zero for waste to energy plants, to about 1/2 the cost of natural gas for coal.}

What are the most common fuels?
The most common fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas.
What gas does complete burning of fossil fuels produce?
Complete burning of the hydrocarbon portion of fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide. Since most fossil fuels contains nitrogenous and sulfurous components also, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide would also be produced by complete combustion.
What is the main gas released during complete combustion of fossil fuels?
Carbon dioxide, CO2. The word and sybol equations are: hydrocarbon + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water CH4 +2H2O --> + CO2 (+energy) Hope this helped!
Do combustion reactions release energy?
Yes, the combustion of coal, oil, natural gas, wood, or other fuels that burn in air, all produce energy in the form of thermal energy
What harmful gas is being released when engines burn fossil fuels?
Carbon monoxide is released.
