What name is given to a process such as burning a candle?

What gases and given out when fossil fuels are burnt?
Gasses produced from fossil fuels are many, such as what was known as coal gas (acetylene), CO2, CO, and many others that are formed with impurities found in fossil fuels as sulphur which can produces several toxic gasses within itself.
When you burn fossil fuels what gas is given off?
The main gases given off when you burn fossil fuels, such as coil, oil and natural gas, are carbon dioxide and water vapour. Both are greenhouse gases, but the water vapour quickly falls out of the atmosphere.
What name is given to a process such as a burning candle?
Combustion.
What is adding to the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today?
Given in no particular order:burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas)forest firesvolcanic eruptions
What is another word for burning of fossil fuel?
Combustion is the term given to burning a fuel, very often fossil fuels.
What other name is given to carbon based fuels?
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).

What is present in the smoke and fumes given off when fossil fuels are burned?
carbon dioxcide :)
What name is given to a process such as a burning a candle?
melting and burning
What type of energy is given off by the fossil fuels and used to boil the water?
heat energy

Most air pollution is a result of?
Carbon dioxide being given off when we burn fossil fuels.
What name is given to a process such as a burning candle?
Combustion.
What is the process called when carbon moves throgh biosphere?
Photosynthesis & Respiration, DecompositionTranspirationtranspirationTranspiration. This answer depends on the options you were given. If the choices were photosynthesis, burning of fossil fuels, and the decomposition of plants and animals accompanied by transpiration, then transpiration is your answer.Transpiration, unlike the rest of the processes, is not part of the carbon cycle, but in fact the water cycle.RespirationTranspirationtranspiration.
Why is the percentage of carbon dioxide in the air so low when so much is given off through burning fossil fuels?
Don't concentrate on how carbon dioxide competes with other gases such as Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Argon in the total percentages but rather the change in the percentage of carbon dioxide in the air over time. It is generally agreed that carbon dioxide levels are higher now than ever before due to fossil fuels.
