Meaning - Fossil fuels are energy-rich, combustible forms of carbon or compounds of carbon formed by the decomposition of biomass buried under the Earth over millions of year..

Pollution Due to the Burning of Fossil Fuels (Additional) - Contamination of air with harmful toxic gases, smoke and particulate matter (e.g., dust etc.) is called air pollution. The substances that cause pollution are called pollutants. Combustion of fossil ..

Contamination of air with harmful toxic gases, smoke and particulate matter (e.g., dust etc.) is called air pollution. The substances that cause pollution are called pollutants. Combustion of fossil fuels is one of the main causes of pollution of the atmosphere i..

The Earth contains many resources which are not being replaced. These resources which are not being replaced are called non-renewable sources. Amongst the most non-renewable resources are the three fossil fuels - coal, petroleum and natural ga..

We all know that oxygen is needed to burn fuels. Atmospheric oxygen is used for the combustion of fuel to generate energy in automobiles, aeroplanes, ships, generators, industrial process etc. In space there is no air and hence no oxygen. Yet liquid oxygen-known as LO..

Combustion means the burning of a substance. It is a process that is highly exothermic i.e., produces a lot of heat. The products of combustion of carbon and its compounds are heat energy, carbon dioxide and water (vapour). In order that a fuel undergoes combusti..
