Which types of fuels give out energy when burned?
I know that RadioActive gives the MOST energy even if 1 gram is burned!
Fuels are chemicals which can be burned to give?
This question needs clarification for the best answer, but one answer would be "energy."
Do fossil fuels give of CFC's?
no they dont
Can you give me a sentence using the word pollution?
Air pollution is getting worse.
What do fuels give off?
Greenhouse gases and a nasty smell

What happens to fossil fuels when there burned?
When fossil fuels are burned they give off heat, the reason why we use them. Then they give gasses such as CO2 for example.
What Fuels are chemicals which can burned to give?
oxygen
Do nuclear power plants generate more or less air pollution than fossil fuel plants?
A power plant uses fossil fuels to produce the energy. When the fossil fuels such as gasoline and coal is burned it releases chemicals into the air. Fossil fuels themselves don't cause pollution because they are objects in the ground. The fuels are burned inside the power plants which is where the chemicals and pollution comes from. The power plant doesn't cause pollution either because it simply takes the energy produced and distributes it. The pollution is caused during the chemical reaction of the heat of fire reacting with the petroleum fumes or the coal rocks. The chemicals and gas are simply products. So for a straight forward answer neither one produces pollution. The pollution comes from the chemical reaction. But in regards as to where the pollution come from it comes from the power plants because the fossil fuels don't give off pollution.
What fuels give out pollution when they are burned?
The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases carbon dioxide (CO2) pollution which is causing global warming. The burning of coal releases other pollutants like sulphur dioxide (SO2) , nitrogen oxides (NOx) , mercury and aerosol particles. This causes acid rain, as well as bronchitis, asthma and other human illnesses.
What is bad about fossil fules?
Fossil fuels are bad for the enviorment because: 1.When you burn fossil fuels you give off pollution 2.That pollution goes into the atmosphere 3.The pollution that got into the atmosphere will add to the ozone layer and make it hotter on Earth These are reasons that fossil fuels are bad for the enviorment.

You wish to know the weblink which can give you Emission Factors in tons of CO2 per ton of Different Fuels burned?
See this link.
Can you give me a small speech on pollution?
pollution is harmful materials that damage or contaminate the air,water or soil,such as gasoline exhaustand industrail waste.pollution is also the burning of fossil fuels like gasoline.
Where does global warming take place?
Many things cause global warming. One thing that causes global warming is electrical pollution. Electricity causes pollution in many ways, some worse than others. In most cases, fossil fuels are burned to create electricity. Fossil fuels are made of dead plants and animals. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil and petroleum. Many pollutants (chemicals that pollute the air, water, and land) are sent into the air when fossil fuels are burned. Some of these chemicals are called greenhouse gasses. We use these sources of energy much more than the sources that give off less pollution. Petroleum, one of the sources of energy, is used a lot. It is used for transportation, making electricity, and making many other things. Although this source of energy gives off a lot of pollution, it is used for 38% of the United States' energy.
How does fossil fuels affects the air?
Fossil fuels affect the air by increasing the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. As they are burned, the gases they give off slowly increase the atmospheric temperature and cause greater heat retention.
What is the reason of pollution?
Human beings themselves are the main reason for pollution. Pollution can be caused through electricity, fuels and transportation among many other factors.
