What else can I help you with?
Fossil fuels is what energy?
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
Is kinetic energy stored by fossil fuels?
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
How is the chemical energy in fossil fuels related to the sun's energy?
Fossil fuels are formed from organic matter that originally obtained its energy from the sun through photosynthesis. This organic matter stored the sun's energy in the form of chemical bonds, which is released as chemical energy when the fossil fuels are burned. So, the chemical energy in fossil fuels can be traced back to the sun's energy.
Why is the sun the source of energy for fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are produced by the slow alteration of masses of vegetation, compressed underground. That vegetation originally used the energy of sunlight to grow, therefore it is the sun's energy which is stored in chemical form, in fossil fuels.
What energy does fossil fuels have?
chemical energy
How can fossil fuels be used as an energy source?
fossil fuels can be used as an energy source to power all vehicles and most machinery
What energy source can you use instead of fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are exhaustible. Electric energy is an alternative.
Where is the energy source of fossil fuels found?
It comes from sunlight originally, since plants formed the original organic molecules. When dead plants and animals were buried, compressed, and heated, their products (coal, oil, gas) retained the chemical energy stored in their molecules millions of years earlier.
What energy type does fossil fuels have?
chemical energy
What form of energy do fuels contain?
Fossil fuels contain chemical energy.
What is the relationship between non-renewable resource and chemical energy?
Nonrenewable fossil fuels, like oil and coal, store a lot chemical energy in the bonds between its molecules. When these fossil fuels are burned, the chemical energy is released.
What type of energy is fossil fuels?
Chemical.
