The correct answer is - natural gas.

The natural gas is the fossil fuel that releases the least amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It actually releases very little to none. The reason for that is that the natural gas is a fossil fuel which has the methane as its main ingredient. Even when used, it is not causing some serious pollution, instead the pollution comes from not well managed infrastructure and movement from one place to another of the natural gas. The biggest problem, pollution wise, comes from the leaking of the natural gas, when methane is released into the atmosphere.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Natural gas</u><u> produces the least amount of CO2 in the air</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The amount of CO2 produced when a fuel is burned is a function of the carbon content of the fuel. The heat content, or the amount of energy produced when a fuel is burned, is mainly determined by the carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) content of the fuel. Natural gas emits 50 to 60 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted in air as compared to other fossil fuels

Alex

Answer:

A neutral particle made of an electron and hole

Explanation:

Exciton

It is the combination of an electron and a hole ( hole refers to the vacancy of an electron ) . And , as both the electron and the hole have the same charge but the polarity is opposite , the combination will lead to a neutral compound , i.e. ,  Exciton have no charge and so neutral .

It is free to move in the nonmetallic crystal and since it charge less , it is difficult to detect it directly .

Pierce conducts an experiment in which waves collide in a way that the energy increases, which means that has occurred
Vikki [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

It means the waves collides and constructive interference occurred.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

If the two waves coming from the opposite direction collide with each other, there are two way of their interference.

  • Constructive interference: An interference which results in the increase in energy. And it is when crust of a wave comes on the crust of second wave.
  • Destructive interference: An interference which results in decrease in energy of the resulting wave and colliding waves cancel the result of each other.

Hence in experiment there will be constructive interference.
