to burn any material, not only fossil fuel, we need three things:

1. Fuel (any material that can be burned, ex: fossil fuel, wood, paper, etc)

2. Ignition (high temperature, or fire sparks)

3. Air

and now, if you want to burn fossil fuel on the moon you also need these three factors..

the answer is : NO, because there is no air on the moon ( if there is, it's just in a very small volume and can't be used to burn fossil fuel)

ANSWER 2.0 BY RUSSIANS

1)there is no fossil fuel on the moon

2)there no oxygen on the moon

however if you bring your own,

like the FUEL AND OXIDIZER for rocket

engines of American space craft

fossil fuel will burn just fine.

i believe the fuel used was hydrogen witch is non petroleum

so technically it was not fossil fuel.

but never the less it was fire in vacuum.

Halogens are the basis of all fossil fuels?

Halogens are not the basis of all fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are primarily composed of hydrocarbons, which are compounds made of hydrogen and carbon. Halogens like chlorine, bromine, and fluorine are not key components of fossil fuels.


What are some of the negative consequences to using fossil fuels for solar power?

You can't use fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) for solar power. You can use fossil fuels to burn to make electricity. Solar power is another way of generating electricity that is better, without negative consequences. The negative effects of using fossil fuels are the polluting greenhouse gases emitted, mostly carbon dioxide (CO2). These gases are building in the atmosphere and causing global warming.


Does rockets use fossil fuels?

Most rockets today use liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen as fuel, not fossil fuels. These fuels react to produce water vapor and can be considered eco-friendly compared to fossil fuels. However, some rockets still use a combination of liquid oxygen and kerosene as fuel, which is a fossil fuel.


Is the sun's energy stored in fossil fuels?

Yes. Here's how it works.The sun's radiation grew plants (photosynthesis)Animals ate the plantsPlants and animals died and were crushed underground for 300 million years, turning into fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas)We dig them up and burn them, releasing that long lost energy from the sun! (As well as the long lost carbon dioxide!) nnnn


Are fossil fuels stored solar energy?

Yes, the energy in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) came originally from the sun.
