Chapter
This is a substance that provides a form of energy as a result of a chemical change.
A 100
What is a fuel?
A 100
This is a factory in which crude oil is separated into fuels and other products.
A 200
What is a refinery?
A 200
This is the process of burning a fuel to release energy.
A 300
What is combustion?
A 300
This is the fossil fuel that accounts for approximately
23% of the energy used in the United States.
A 400
What is coal?
A 400
This is a compound that is made from oil.
A 500
What is a petrochemical?
A 500
This is the name for electricity produced by
flowing water.
B 100
What is hydroelectric power?
B 100
This is the name for energy given off by the sun in the
form of heat and light.
B 200
What is solar energy?
B 200
Wood, plant wastes, manure, and other fuels made from
living things are examples of this type of fuel.
B 300
What are biomass fuels?
B 300
This is a mixture of alcohol and gasoline used as fuel.
B 400
What is gasohol?
B 400
This is the name for the energy from the intense heat
of the Earth’s interior.
B 500
What is geothermal energy?
B 500
This is the name for the splitting of an atom’s nucleus
into two smaller nuclei.
C 100
What is nuclear fission?
C 100
In a nuclear reactor, fission reactions are controlled by
inserting these.
C 200
What are control rods?
C 200
This is the central core of an atom that contains the protons
and neutrons.
C 300
What is the nucleus?
C 300
DAILY DOUBLE
C 400
DAILY DOUBLE
Place A Wager
This is the section of the nuclear reactor where nuclear
fission occurs.
C 400
What is the reactor vessel?
C 400
This is the name for rods of uranium-235 which produce
fission reactions.
C 500
What are fuel rods?
C 500
This is a layer of material that blocks the transfer of heat
between the air inside and the air outside a building.
D 100
What is insulation?
D 100
Walking to the library instead of driving a car is an example
of this.
D 200
What is energy conservation?
D 200
This type of light bulb is more efficient and uses less energy than an incandescent
light bulb.
D 300
What is a fluorescent light bulb?
D 300
This is how biomass fuels are better than fossil fuels.
D 400
What is they are renewable?
D 400
This is the material used in insulation for most homes.
D 500
What is fiberglass?
D 500
This is the type of power plant shown above.
E 100
What is a nuclear power plant?
E 100
This is the letter of the reactor vessel.
E 200
What is letter ‘C’?
E 200
This is the part labeled ‘F’.
E 300
What is the generator?
E 300
This is the purpose of part B and why it is important to
have this part.
E 400
What is the control rod which keeps the reactor from going
into a meltdown?
E 400
This is the purpose of part D.
E 500
What is to transfer heat from the fission area and create
steam to turn the blades of the turbine?
E 500
Nuclear fission is considered a nonrenewable source of
energy. This is what nuclear fusion is considered.
F 100
What is renewable?
F 100
This is a factory where crude oil is separated into fuels and
other products by heating.
F 200
What is a refinery?
F 200
This is the process of burning a fuel to release energy.
F 300
What is combustion?
F 300
This is an energy-rich substance that formed over a long period of time from the
remains of once-living organisms.
F 400
What is a fossil fuel?
F 400
This is a description of how a hydroelectric power plant
produces electricity.
F 500
What is a dam across a river blocks the flow of water and creates an artificial lake called a reservoir. Water flows
through tunnels at the bottom of the dam. As the water moves through the tunnels, it turns turbines. The turbine’s shaft is connected to magnets surrounded by
coils of copper wire. As the shaft rotates, the magnets turn inside the wire
coils, producing an electric current?
