How does gas get its energy from the sun?

Answer 1

Natural gas is formed from the fossilized remains of animals and plants. These animals and plants took energy from the sun when they were growing (plants through photosynthesis, animals through eating plants). This energy remains in the gas and is released when the gas is burnt.

A:If you are referring to the energy in natural gas or gasoline here on earth, these fossil fuels were made from the organic matter in plant material which originally grew by absorbing energy from the sun.

Answer 2

Gas doesn't get its energy directly from the sun. Instead, gas receives energy indirectly from the sun through processes like photosynthesis in plants. The energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy stored in organic molecules, which can be used as fuel by organisms that consume the plants, releasing energy when the molecules are broken down.
