Fossil fuels are organisms that lived hundreds of millions of years ago. As these plants, animals, and other organismsdied, their remains piled up. Over time, heat and pressure changed the material into other substances, including coal, oil, and natural gas. Fossil fuels are also made of hydrocarbons=energy-rich chemical compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What else can I help you with?
Are fossil fuels radioactive?
No, fossil fuels are not radioactive. Fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas are formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. Radioactive materials are not part of the formation process of fossil fuels.
What two elements are fossil fuels mainly composed of?
Fossil fuels are mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen. These elements make up the hydrocarbons found in fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
What are gas oil and coal called?
Fossil fuels.
What Do you make from fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are used to produce electricity, power vehicles, and create various materials such as plastics, fertilizers, and chemicals. They are also used in manufacturing processes and for heating and cooling buildings.
What alternative materials to fossil fuels can be used to make plastic?
Some alternative materials to fossil fuels for making plastic include plant-based sources like sugarcane, corn, and algae. These materials can be used to produce bioplastics, which are biodegradable and renewable. Recycled plastics from post-consumer waste can also be used as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuel-based plastics.
What are relic combustible materials?
fossil fuels
The combustion of fossil fuels causes the acidity of rain to increase because?
When there is a combustion of fossil fuels acid rain occurs from sulfuric, carbonic, and nitric acid. Fossil fuels may contain radioactive materials.
Are fossil fuels radioactive?
No, fossil fuels are not radioactive. Fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas are formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. Radioactive materials are not part of the formation process of fossil fuels.
The majority of the worlds electricity is supplied by burning 2 words?
fossil fuels
How do fossil fuels make elecricity?
They are burned
Can you make electricity from fossil fuels?
yes.
How are fossil fuels converted to fuels?
how r fossil fuels canverted to fuels
How can you make more fossil fuels?
We can NOT make more fossil fuels, because it is (nearly) impossible to make up something that takes millions of years to have the process accomplished, or achieved.
How do fossil fuels make electicity?
the burning of fossil fuels creates thermal energy, which in this case is on the from of steam, which then in turn rotates a turbine
How do you make electrical current?
burn fossil fuels or turbines or hydro or wind
How does how fossil fuels produce electricity or fuel?
Fossil fuels produce electricity when they are burned to make steam or smoke which turns generators to make electricity. But we must be careful that we are not burning too much fossil fuels so that we will run out one day. :)
How can you make money from fossil fuels?
extract oil
