Question

a fossil fuel is found along with petroleum in oil Wells name it state any two characteristics and use of this fuel​

Answer 1

Answer:

A fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing organic molecules originating in ancient photosynthesis[1] that release energy in combustion.[2] Such organisms and their resulting fossil fuels typically have an age of millions of years, and sometimes more than 650 million years.[3] Fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[4] Peat is also sometimes considered a fossil fuel.[5] Commonly used derivatives of fossil fuels include kerosene and propane. Fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon-to-hydrogen ratios (like methane), to liquids (like petroleum), to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. Methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates

Answer 2

Answer:

Hope it helps and have a nice day ahead...................

Explanation:

/- Natural gas is found alongwith petroleum in oil wells .

Chareteristics of fossil fuels /-

1 - / Fossil fuels are highly combustible in the presence of heat and oxygen and they have very low ignition temperature.

2 - / They are renewable and are formed naturally over millions of years by the pressure of rock and sediment on the bodies of plants and animals that died before millions of years.

Uses of fossil fuels /-

1 - / Coal is a fossil fuel used in thermal power plants for generating electricity.

2 - / Petrol and diesal are used as fuels in motor vehicles.
