It goes into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. The heat produced by burning fuel comes from forming the carbon-oxygen chemical bonds that creates CO2.

Why does burning wood and burning fossil fuels produce similar pollutants?
Burning fossil fuels and burning wood produce similar pollutants because wood and fossil fuels are both consist of hydrogen and carbon. Carbon dioxide is produced when burning wood and fossil fuel.
By what process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
What process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
How does burning fossil fuels affect the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by increasing it.
People return carbon stored in fossil fuels to the carbon-oxygen cycle by burning what?
By burning the fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are natural fuels such as coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms.
Why does burning wood and burning fossil fuels produce similar pollutants?
Burning fossil fuels and burning wood produce similar pollutants because wood and fossil fuels are both consist of hydrogen and carbon. Carbon dioxide is produced when burning wood and fossil fuel.
By what process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
What process is the carbon in fossil fuels released into the atmosphere?
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
Carbon monoxide may be produced in the process of burning of fossil fuels?
If the burning is incomplete it will. Ideally perfect burning of fuel produces water vapor and carbon dioxide.
How does burning fossil fuels affect the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by increasing it.
People return carbon stored in fossil fuels to the carbon-oxygen cycle by burning what?
By burning the fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are natural fuels such as coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms.
Does burning fossil fuels affect the water cycle?
No, the burning of fossil fuels affects the carbon cycle, but not the water cycle.
Are any good gases produced when burning fossil fuels?
Not really. Burning fossil fuels releases mainly carbon dioxide. In small quantities this is useful in keeping the earth warm. However carbon dioxide from fossil fuels is not part of the carbon cycle, but extra gas which has been safely sequestered under the ground for millions of years.
What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels Apex?
The general equation for burning/combusting fossil fuels is:- fossil fuel + oxygen(air) = Carbon dioxide and Water.
What percent of electricity produced in the UK comes from burning fossil fuels?
what percentage of electricity produced in the UK comes from burning fossil fuels ?
Are fossil fuels carbon-based?
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon into the atmosphere in the form of CO2. Yes.
How is electricity produced in the Caribbean?
it is produced bt the burning of fossil fuels
