When fossil fuels are burned they turn into mercury which released into the atmosphere
What type of energy is released when fossil fuels are burned?
it released chemical energy
Is stored in a fossil fuel and released in the form of kinetic energy when burned?
Potential
What are three pollutants released into the air when fuels are burned?
Carbon dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen.
What is stored in a fossil fuel and released in the form of kinetic energy when burned?
Potential energy, which is stored as chemical bonds in the hydrocarbon molecules.

When fossil fuels burned what happened?
When fossil fuels are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the environment. This can influence the greenhouse effect and increase global warming. Coal is the fossil fuel that produces the most carbon dioxide emission.
Are fossil fuels radioactive?
Some are more radioactive than others.
What happened when fossils fuels are burned?
When fossil fuels are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the environment. This can influence the greenhouse effect and increase global warming. Coal is the fossil fuel that produces the most carbon dioxide emission.
What is the relationship between non-renewable resource and chemical energy?
Nonrenewable fossil fuels, like oil and coal, store a lot chemical energy in the bonds between its molecules. When these fossil fuels are burned, the chemical energy is released.
