What else can I help you with?
What two elements are fossil fuels mainly composed of?
Fossil fuels are mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen. These elements make up the hydrocarbons found in fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
What are gas oil and coal called?
Fossil fuels.
How is fossil fuels man made?
A fossil is a relic of earlier times, that is found in the ground. By definition, it is not man made. People can make fuel, for example, we can grow corn, and then extract corn syrup, ferment it to make alcohol, and burn the alcohol. But that is not a fossil fuel. Petroleum, natural gas, and coal are the fossil fuels. We did not make them, they have been in the ground for a long time before we came along.
Are all fuels examples of chemical energy?
They don't have to be. Some fuels are fossil fuels, which are rapidly disappearing right now. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil, which we use for gas, and coal, which we use for heat and electricity. But fossil fuels take millions of years to make more, so we are rapidly using up the fossil fuels of the world.
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.
Why cant we not make new fossil fuels?
because fossils have to get crushed naturally for millions of years to make the special liquid.
What would happen if people keep using fossil fuels?
If you keep using fossil fuels it there will be no more and you cant give off energy.
How can you burn fossil fuels in a way that you good for the environment?
You cant, once fossil fuels is burned, the atoms in the fuel is split and produces greenhouse gases
The majority of the worlds electricity is supplied by burning 2 words?
fossil fuels
How do fossil fuels make elecricity?
They are burned
Can you make electricity from fossil fuels?
yes.
Why isnt it correct to say that fossil fuels make thermal energy?
Bcuz when they r both extracted from the ground fossil fuels cant MAKE thermal energy if they both r from the same place like for example a wolf and a tree is a habitat a bit u cant say a wolf makes a tree or a tree makes a wolf bcuz it'll make no sense they have their own way to make others the same as it is....!
How can you make more fossil fuels?
We can NOT make more fossil fuels, because it is (nearly) impossible to make up something that takes millions of years to have the process accomplished, or achieved.
How are fossil fuels converted to fuels?
how r fossil fuels canverted to fuels
How do you make electrical current?
burn fossil fuels or turbines or hydro or wind
How do fossil fuels make electicity?
the burning of fossil fuels creates thermal energy, which in this case is on the from of steam, which then in turn rotates a turbine
How does how fossil fuels produce electricity or fuel?
Fossil fuels produce electricity when they are burned to make steam or smoke which turns generators to make electricity. But we must be careful that we are not burning too much fossil fuels so that we will run out one day. :)
