What is released when fuel burns in oxygen?
Water is given off when fuels are burnt in oxygen
What goes up a power plant stack?
Smoke, hot air, and various pollutants are typically emitted from a power plant stack. These byproducts are released as a result of burning fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas to generate electricity.
How can fuels produce heat?
Fuels produce heat through the process of combustion, where they react with oxygen in the air to release energy in the form of heat and light. This process breaks the chemical bonds in the fuel molecules, releasing stored energy that was used to form those bonds.
Explain why some fuels are fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are made from the remains of ancient organisms like plants and animals that have been buried for millions of years. This organic matter gets transformed into fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas through heat and pressure underground. Their formation process over such a long timescale is what makes them known as fossil fuels.
How can you describe fuels as energy sources?
Fuels are substances that contain stored energy which can be released through combustion to generate heat and produce energy. They are commonly used as energy sources in various applications such as transportation, heating, and electricity generation. Fuels can be categorized as fossil fuels (such as oil, coal, and natural gas) or renewable fuels (such as biofuels and hydrogen).
What happens to the elements in fuels when they are burnt?
turns into oxides
What is created when fossil fuels are burnt?
carbon dioxide
What is released when fuels are burnt in oxygen?
CO2 (Carbon dioxide)
When fuels are burnt what happens to the chemical potential energy?
When fuels are burnt, the chemical potential energy in the fuels is converted into heat and light energy. Initially, such energy will be converted to heat. In a fire, part of that will be radiated away as infrared radiation or light; it is also common that the heat will increase the pressure and make things expand - which is what happens in a gasoline or diesel engine.
What are the main fuels which are burnt in a power station?
Coal an natural gases
What are the two forms of energy released when fuels are burnt?
Heat, and light.
How are fossil fuels used to produce power?
by being burnt such as coal
Which gas is produced when fossil fuels burnt?
When fossil fuels are burnt, carbon dioxide (CO2) is produced as a byproduct along with water vapor and other pollutants like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.
What energy is released by fossil fuels?
Fossil fuel are burnt to release HEAT
What happens when wool is burnt?
a smell of burnt hair comes, i think
What fossil fuels are burnt in factories?
Common fossil fuels burnt in factories include coal, natural gas, and oil. These fuels are used to generate heat and/or electricity for various industrial processes. However, burning fossil fuels contributes to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
What happens when you smoke a half burnt cigarette?
the cigarette turn to full burnt
