Chemical energy, which was originally obtained from the sun by long dead lifeforms.
What else can I help you with?
Which type of energy is stored in fossil fuels?
Chemical energy is stored in fossil fuels, resulting from the organic matter that underwent decomposition over millions of years. This energy is released when the fossil fuels are burned or combusted.
Is kinetic energy stored by fossil fuels?
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
What CE is stored in food and fossil fuels?
The chemical element carbon (C) is stored in both food and fossil fuels. In food, carbon is part of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. In fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, carbon is stored in the form of hydrocarbons.
Which of the foolwing is not a way that carbon is stored in the biosphere?
Burning fossil fuels is not a way that carbon is stored in the biosphere. Burning fossil fuels releases carbon that was previously stored underground back into the atmosphere.
What do thermal energy and fossil fuels have in common?
When fossil fuels are burned, some of the chemical energy stored in them is converted into thermal energy.
The type of energy stored by fossil fuels is?
electromagnetic energy
Are fossil fuels stored solar energy?
Yes, the energy in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) came originally from the sun.
Which process moves carbon stored in fossil fuel into another carbon reservoir?
The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon that has been stored underground into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. This process is known as the combustion of fossil fuels.
What is the energy stored in fossil fuels such as coal?
Chemical potential energy
What is the energy stored In coal and petroleum?
Fossil fuel. Also, natural gas is in the category of fossil fuels.
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.
How is energy stored in fossil fuels?
Energy is stored in fossil fuels through the chemical bonds between carbon and hydrogen atoms. When these bonds are broken through combustion, a chemical reaction releases energy in the form of heat and light. This process allows the stored energy in fossil fuels to be converted into usable forms of energy like electricity or heat.
