<span>Three fossil fuels are, natural gas, coal and oil
I guess what could differentiate them is that: </span>Coal is a solid fossil fuel formed over millions of years by decay of land vegetation. When layers are compacted and heated over time, deposits are turned into coal. Whereas Oil is a liquid fossil fuel that is formed from the remains of marine microorganisms deposited on the sea floor and gas like oil, it is formed from the remains of marine microorganisms.<span>
So the difference could be how they are formed</span>

The pressure of the steam turns a generator, which produces electricity. The difference is in how the heat is created. Power plants that run on fossil fuels burn coal, oil or natural gas to generate heat. In a nuclear energy plant, heat is produced from splitting atoms – a process called nuclear fission.

Which factor causes the shapes of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids to differ?
lidiya [134]

The answer is option C. Number of double covalent bonds between carbon atoms is responsible for causing different shapes of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The double covalent bond causes kink in the unsaturated fatty acids because of which their stacking is disrupted and they become loosely packed. The problem with double covalent bond is that unlike single covalent bond it can't rotate and has almost cis-configuration. This is also the reason behind their liquidity at room temperature.
