What is a primary fossil fuel that releases the fewest pollutants when compared to other fossil fuel?
Natural gas.
What are three pollutants released into the air when fuels are burned?
Carbon dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen.
Type of smog formed from fossil fuel pollutants with the aid of light?
Photochemical smog
Write the word equation for the combustion of a fossil fuel?
Fuel+oxygen --> carbon dioxide+water
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.
When energy stored in fossil fuel its released by?
combustion
What is a primary fossil fuel that releases the fewest pollutants when compared to other fossil fuel?
Natural gas.
What are three pollutants released into the air when fuels are burned?
Carbon dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen.
Combustion as a source of energy can lead to formation of air pollutants like CO and NO and how can each of these pollutants form from the combustion of fuel?
There is carbon and nitrogen in fuel. Burning it with oxygen (incomplete) produces CO and NO.
What are the primary products of complete combustion of fossil fuel?
Carbon Dioxide and water are the primary combustion products of fossil fuels.
What are the primary product of the complete combustion of fossil fuel?
Carbon Dioxide and water are the primary combustion products of fossil fuels.
What is another word for burning of fossil fuel?
Combustion is the term given to burning a fuel, very often fossil fuels.
How can we reduce the combustion of fossil fuels?
You can change the air-to-fuel ratio to get less optimal combustion.
What must occur for the potential energy of fossiL fuel to change into other forms of energy?
"Combustion" must occur before the potential energy can be released from fossil fuels... examples of fossil fuel... gasoline and coal, both are "burned" to create their energy
Type of smog formed from fossil fuel pollutants with the aid of light?
Photochemical smog
Which fossil fuel produces the lowest overall levels of air pollutants?
Natural gas.
Why does burning fossil fuel pollute the air?
It produces carbon monoxide and other pollutants.
