A leading theory for the formation of fossil fuels is the organic matter theory, which suggests that fossil fuels are derived from the remains of ancient plants and animals. Over millions of years, these organic materials were buried under layers of sediment, subjected to heat and pressure, and underwent chemical transformations. This process led to the formation of coal, oil, and natural gas, which are now extracted and used as primary energy sources. The specific conditions of temperature, pressure, and time play crucial roles in determining the type of fossil fuel generated.
temperature and pressure
No, formation of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.Burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide.
coal
Yes, time is a factor in the formation of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Einstein's theory of people.
New Mexico is leading 6th in fossil fuel production.
Yes, coal is considered an organic substance because it is derived from the remains of plants and organic matter that have undergone geological processes over time, leading to its formation as a fossil fuel.
Fossil fuels are formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. The process begins with the decomposition of organic matter in the absence of oxygen, leading to the formation of peat. Over time, peat is buried under layers of sediment, increasing pressure and temperature, eventually transforming it into coal, oil, or natural gas.
No its not a fossil fuel
Oil is a fossil fuel.
