Do you get petrol from oil?
Yes. It is refined from crude oil in a process known as cracking.
What did fossil fuels start out as?
Sunlight. carbon dioxide, and water. These were absorbed by plants and converted into plant materials. These if trapped underground and subjected to heat and pressure were converted into coal, peat, slate, oil, natural gas...
What is Fossils and Fossil fuel?
Fossils are evidences of prehistoric life, the record of which is usually in a stone medium. Fossil fuel is the product of prehistoric life, such as coal, peat, oil, and natural gas, which can be burned to provide energy.
Most of the oil that pollutes the ocean is caused by?
non-point source pollutions
What are the effects of Iodine in car motor oil?

How is peat and crude oil alike?

What is the first step in coal formation peat lignite bituminous coal or anthracite?
Plant growth layers onto itself but doesn't decompose quickly creating a peat bog. The peat builds up in the bog, layer by layer compressing into lignite (brown coal). This continues decomposing (anaerobically)and solidifying into semi bituminous (like asphalt), bituminous (soft), semi anthracite or anthracite (hard) coal, depending on pressure, moisture and mineral content of the process. The gasses of decomposition are largely lost in this natural process. Sometimes this process (due to the type of plant) will decompose into bitumen (tar) or oil deposits which, due to the covering material, traps the gasses of decomposition (natural gas) into pockets, which is why it is most often found when drilling for oil.
