Question

Match the term with the correct description.

Work                                      Coal can be mixed with biomass fuels to produce energy with less carbon dioxide emissions

Energy                                          Small individual molecules of natural gas trapped in a crystalline matrix of frozen water

Power                The capacity to do work

Newton           Application of force over distance

Joule        Composed of sand and shale particles coated with bitumen, a viscous mixture of long chain hydrocarbons

Flex-fuel boilers                                 Sedimentary rock rich in kerogen

Tar sands                                               Create fissionable plutonium and thorium isotopes from stable forms of uranium

Oil shale                                       Rate at which work is done

Methane hydrate                                     Force needed to accelerate 1 kg 1 meter per second

Breeder reactors                                     Amount of work done when a force of 1 newton is exerted over 1 meter

                                            

Explanation / Answer

work --- application of force over distance

flex fuel boilers---Coal can be mixed with biomass fuels to produce energy with less carbon dioxide emissions

Energy --The capacity to do work

Methane hydrate --Small individual molecules of natural gas trapped in a crystalline  matrix of frozen water

Power---Rate at which work is done

Newton ----Force needed to accelerate 1 kg 1 meter per second

Joule ------Amount of work done when a force of 1 newton is exerted over 1 meter

Tar sands----Composed of sand and shale particles coated with bitumen, a -viscous mixture of long chain hydrocarbons

Oil shale-------Sedimentary rock rich in kerogen

Breeder reactors___--- Create fissionable plutonium and thorium isotopes from stable forms of uranium
