Fossil fuels are formed by natural processes of decomposition of dead and buried plants, animals and other organism. They got buried under oceans and layers of earth many millions of years ago and with time, high pressure and high temperature they formed fossil fuels
type of fossil fuels which can all be used for energy provision; coal and natural gas. Coal is a solid fossil fuel formed over millions of years by decay of land vegetation.
- Coal is a hard rock which can be burned as a solid fossil fuel. It is mostly carbon but also contains hydrogen, sulphur, oxygen and nitrogen. It is a sedimentary rock formed from peat, by the pressure of rocks laid down later on top.
- Natural gas (also called fossil gas; sometimes just gas), is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium.
