The primary reaction is a chemical reaction where Carbon, Hydrogen in the fuel oxidize to form CO2 and H2O.
CO2 and H2O are compounds with lower energy states than the Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen so energy is given off in the reaction.

The fuel is oxidized. The fossil fuel is mostly C carbon and H hydrogen which is oxidized to H2O (water) and CO2 (carbon dioxide) or partial combustion to CO (carbon monoxide). This is a chemical process.

you're lacking the genuine significant area: KY & WV have lots going for them with the exception of coal. And If the community seeks to develope in ideas that eliminate the dependance on coal, anybody could be attempting to stay there. in case you've been able to have an income of $50 to $one hundred Thousand a year with a shrink in production of .01% in coal production could that be a reliable issue. you does no longer of moved out of the community, all could nonetheless function and the country could could hit upon a source of potential to interchange the .01% of LOSS coal production. step by technique of step all will artwork, see you later as we gained't do something or save doing an identical issue, we will be up the creek.

Chemical energy is converted into heat energy. Hydro-carbons combine with oxygen to become Hydrogen and oxygen (water) and carbon and oxygen (carbon dioxide)

Anything taht is on is taking up these fossiol fuels.Soon tehre will be no more so that's why we should use less power.Electricity and other things.
