Fossil fuels are considered combustible because they contain hydrocarbons that can be burned to release energy. When fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas undergo combustion, they react with oxygen to produce heat, water vapor, and carbon dioxide. This process is commonly used for generating electricity or powering vehicles.
What else can I help you with?
What are gas oil and coal called?
Fossil fuels.
What are combustable materials?
fossil fuels
What are combustible substances are also called?
Another term is flammable.
Is it true that halogens are the basis of all fossil fuels?
No, halogens are not the basis of all fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are primarily made up of hydrocarbons, which are compounds of hydrogen and carbon. Halogens, like chlorine and fluorine, are not typically found in significant amounts in fossil fuels.
Do all fossil fuels have in contain methane?
No, not all fossil fuels contain methane. Fossil fuels primarily consist of carbon and hydrogen, with varying amounts of other elements like sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen. Methane is mainly found in natural gas, which is a fossil fuel, but not all fossil fuels contain methane.
Are fossil fuels combustible material?
yes.. they are..
What are relic combustible materials?

What are the advantahes of fossil fuels?
Some of the advantages of fossil fuels are that they are highly combustible and easy to transport. Oil and gas can be transported over long distances through pipeline or oil tankers.
What is the type of energy stored by fossil fuels such as coal?
combustible energy. it can burn at a very high temperature
What fuels could be used instead of fossil fuels?

What statement about fossils fuels is not true?
Fossil fuels are clean burning and will not be bad for the environment. We will never run out of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are good for our health. These are a few that are not true about fossil fuels.
Why use fossil fuels if they are nonrenewable?
Fossil Fuels (such as oil) are used most of the time, because it does not need much converting. Considering how it is already combustible. Also the process of mining and converting is usually cheaper than getting fuel from a renewable resources ( ie. Solar, hydro, aero powered).
What are fossil fuels and how are they obtained?
fossil fuels can be obtained in tanks
