What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels?
Burning of fossil fuels is an oxidation reaction.
what groups of people are worried about global warming caused by burning fossil fuels?
Scientists and governments around the world are worried about global warming caused by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) because of the serious problems it is causing.Oil companies are worried because if we stop burning fossil fuels they will go out of business.
Why does burning wood and burning fossil fuels produce the same substance?
The main content is the same. Of the wood is carbon and hydrogen, and that of fossil fuels is hydrogen and carbon. So when wood and fossil fuels are burnt the Carbon combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, and the hydrogen combines with oxygen to produce water (H2O). C+O2--> CO2+CO
Which greenhouse gas has increased as a direct result of burning fossil fuels and deforestation?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the greenhouse gas that has increased as a direct result of burning fossil fuels and deforestation. The burning of fossil fuels releases large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere, while deforestation reduces the Earth's capacity to absorb CO2 through trees and vegetation.
How energy transformed when fossil fuels are used?
Fossil fuels can be burned to release the potential chemical energy stored millions of years ago.The process of burning fuels is called Combustion.
What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels?
Burning of fossil fuels is an oxidation reaction.
What steps are people taking to reduce their carbon footprints and global warming?
by burning fossil fuels
Why is burning fossil fuels an issue?
Bcoz burning of fossil fuels releases poisonous fuels which are harmful to human health....;)
The majority of the worlds electricity is supplied by burning 2 words?
fossil fuels
Why the burning of fossil fuels should be controlled?
Burning fossil fuels releases harmful greenhouse gases, leading to climate change and global warming. Controlling the burning of fossil fuels can help mitigate these effects and reduce air pollution, improving public health and the environment for future generations.
Burning fossil fuels?
burning fossil fuels is bad for cats because it makes them fall from places they are :P
Does the burning of coal and oil reduce the weight of the earth?
No, burning coal and oil does not reduce the weight of the Earth. The mass of the Earth remains constant, regardless of the burning of fossil fuels. However, burning fossil fuels does contribute to global warming and environmental damage.
How can reducing the burning of fossil fuels help reduce acid rain?
By reducing the burning of fossil fuels, we can decrease the amount of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides released into the atmosphere. These pollutants are major contributors to acid rain formation. Therefore, decreasing the use of fossil fuels can help lower the levels of acid rain.
What envirommental problem is created by burning fossil fuels?
The enviromental problem caused by burning fossil fuels is air pollution.Global warming
What statement about fossils fuels is not true?
Fossil fuels are clean burning and will not be bad for the environment. We will never run out of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are good for our health. These are a few that are not true about fossil fuels.
Water pollution can occur from burning fossil fuels due to?
Water pollution can occur from burning fossil fuels due to the acid rain. Fossil fuels will pollute the atmosphere which will result into acid rain.
How do you stop burning fossil fuels?
Most of our modern civilisation relies on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). We burn them in transport, industry and to generate electricity. Burning fossil fuels releases a greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, that is causing global warming. To stop burning fossil fuels we have to change to renewable energy(solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen).
