sulpher dioxide. eh
Corrected:
yes... it's sulfur.. and when you burn sulfur you'll get sulfur dioxide after combuston.

What type of combustion fuels produces to the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide?
Fossil fuels
When fossil fuels burn what are the reactants?
The burning of fossil fuels are a combustion reaction. The reaction for the combustion has the reactants of propane (C3H8) and oxygen (O2). The combustion reactions products are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
What does the combustion of fossil fuels release into our atmosphere?
it is where dead animals and plants rot in the soil and then turn into fossil fuel. The combustion of fossil fuels is where humans use them inappropriately and burn then for fuel in factories and places which harm the enviroment
The process of burning fossil fuels is known as?
it's known as combustion
What is the name given to the burning process of fossil fuels?
Combustion is basically OXIDATION.
What type of combustion fuels produces to the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide?
Fossil fuels
Which element is required for the combustion of fossil fuels?
Hydrogen
Why is incomplete combustion of fuels more harmful to human beings?
Incomplete combustion often produces toxic compounds such as carbon monoxide.
What is the process of burning fuels?
Combustion
Chemical reaction that produces heat?
Chemical reactions that produce heat (or energy) are known as Exothermic Reactions. (Example: combustion of fuels)
Combustion of fuels?

What kind of energy do you start with when burning fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are a source of chemical energy. Chemically conbining the hydrocarbons in fossil fuels with air is combustion and primarily produces carbon dioxide and water. (There are many more details of the chemistry of the specific fossil fuels and many other results of their combustion besides the predominant gasses of water and carbon dioxide.)
When we burn fuels what reactions and products are made and what happens when we burn fuels?
Different fuels produce different products. Burning hydrogen produces only water. Burning methane produces both water and carbon dioxide. Burning gasoline produces lots of products. In any event, burning a fuel produces heat that we use for various purposes.
What element is always present in fuels like coal oil and natural gas?
Carbon and hydrogen
What are the primary products of complete combustion of fossil fuels.?
Carbon Dioxide and water are the primary combustion products of fossil fuels.
Does carbon dioxide support the combustion of fuels such as wood?
It does not support combustion...
What chemical property of fuels is the ability to?
Combustion of fuels release heat.
