In this video, we look at how fossil fuels are used for energy. First we explore the advantages of using fossil fuels and then we look at the negative aspects.
This video is based on the AQA spec. If you are following a different exam board then you should check your specification. The Amazon link above is an affiliate link.

hello sir I'd like to thank you for making these videos. You've helped me a lot
Thx this video really helped me get through my science test!
in gcse's for 2018, its probably not the best thing to call them abundant as we now know that they are going to run out very soon, probably in our lifetime.

They will never run out. Renewable technology will mean that they are simply left in the ground.

I understand what you are saying but in the time before we can get renewable energy to high levels of efficiency, we will still be relying on the fossil fuels, and it could be ages before renewables are good enough to replace the fossil fuels, and also predictions have informed us that levels of fossil fuels are extremely low

I think that they will be gradually phased out to the point where they are used only for chemicals and not for energy but who knows what might happen?

I am curious. What did you get?
If I had a coal power station, and I was using catalysts to split the CO2 released and then re-using the oxygen and carbon to burn and make more energy, I would have cycle where I don't need to be supplied with much coal. Where would the energy actually be coming from? Since I'm just re-using the same stuff. Probably a flaw in this concept, partly why I'm asking.
@Freesciencelessons

Well, it's a good question but what you're describing would violate the Law of Conservation of Energy (energy can neither be created, nor destroyed, only transferred from one form to another). And no catalyst can do that. So it's impossible I'm afraid.

How can they be abundant and non-renewable at the same time?
@charliebrett7510
5 жыл бұрын
The world currently has a lot of them so they are "abundant" but its future challenges are that they will eventually run out which makes them "non renewable"
@n.a7848

Adisa Ali Abundant means that theres a large quantity of it and this point/moment For example theres an abudant amount of kelloges cereal in aldi Non renewable means that it will eventually run out if we keep using it and we cannot form new ones. Eg if everyone just started to eat kelloges the abundance will decrease and if kelloges decided to stop making cereal- the kelloges cereal will eventually run out
