Chemical Formulas for Common Fuels

Make observations of these chemical formulas for common fuels to look for patterns.

How does carbon move from a burning fuel to air?

Gather more information from an animation about the products of burning fossil fuels.

Predict the Products of Combustion

Make predictions about what gases might be products of different reactions using what you know about atoms in fossil fuels.

Model How Combustion Affects the Atmosphere

Develop a model to show how fossil fuel combustion affects the gases in the atmosphere.

Burning Fuels Lab

View a lab to investigate the gases that could be produced when we burn fossil fuels.
