Are fossil fuels inexhaustible?
No, fossil fuels are not inexhaustible. They are non-renewable resources, meaning they are finite and will eventually run out if they continue to be used at current rates. This is why there is a push towards renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuels.
Why fossil fuels are regarded as infinite resource?
Fossil fuels are not regarded as an infinite resource. They are finite. Oil wells get used up and run dry. In the very long term, it is possible that new deposits of fossil fuel will be created by the same process that created the existing deposits, however, that takes millions of years, which means that for our purposes, fossil fuels will run out.
How are fossil fuels dug up?
Fossil fuels are typically dug up through the process of mining or drilling. In the case of coal, it is mined from underground or surface mines. Oil and natural gas are extracted by drilling wells deep into the Earth's crust. Once extracted, the fossil fuels are then transported to refineries or processing plants for further treatment.
What things are made from fossil fuels?
Plastics, artificial rubber, Vaseline, diesel, gasoline 500 billion tons of plastic produced in the world every year is made from fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). 70% of this ends up in landfills.
Which gas is used when fossil fuels burn carbon dioxide or oxygen?
When fossil fuels burn, oxygen is used as the gas that reacts with the carbon in the fuel to produce carbon dioxide. This process is known as combustion and is the reason why carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct of burning fossil fuels.
Do they burn fossil fuels in Iraq?
Yes. Fossil Fuels are used worldwide. Iraq is an exporter of oil, but an importer of gasoline. Other fossil fuels are used as well.

Why is solar energy good to fossil fuels?
because solar energy is renewable (never gets used up), solar energy is energy from the sun, it will never run out....fossil fuels such as oil coal and gas are getting used up fast, they are non renewable and so it is a big issue....so using solar energy is good to fossil fuel because then the fossil fuels will not get used up.
What fossil fuels can be used to produce electricity?
like coal ,petrolem are the fossil fuels
Why do people need to develop alternative sources of renewable energy and become less dependent on fossil fuels?
Mainly two reasons. (1) The fossil fuels will eventually be used up. (2) Fossil fuels cause pollution.
Are fossil fuels used to produce energy?
All fuels by definition are used to produce energy, fossil fuels are no exception. (Shorter answer: Yes.)
