Fossil fuels are non renewable source of energy. They are formed by the decomposition of wastes of plants and animals which were buried underneath the earth million years ago. ex: coal,oil, wood etc.

Fossil Fuels
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
Burning of fossil fuels is an oxidation reaction.
Hydro-carbons is another name for fossil fuels.
fuels are burned to release the chemical energy
Fossil fuels are formed from organic matter that originally obtained its energy from the sun through photosynthesis. This organic matter stored the sun's energy in the form of chemical bonds, which is released as chemical energy when the fossil fuels are burned. So, the chemical energy in fossil fuels can be traced back to the sun's 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.
