: [[Crude Oil]] is a [[Non-renewable Energy Resources|non-renewable energy resource]].
: [[Crude Oil]] has [[energy]] in its [[Chemical Potential Energy Store|chemical potential energy store]] which can be transferred into a [[Thermal Energy Store|thermal energy store]] by [[combustion]].
 
===Power===
: [[Crude Oil]] can be used to provide [[power]] directly buy burning it in homes, cars, trains. planes and in furnaces or it can provide power by generating electricity.

: 1. Crude Oil is burned in a furnace.
: 2. Water is heated in a boiler by the burning oil.
: 3. Water turns to steam and passes down pipes to turn a turbine.
: 4. The turbine causes a generator to spin.
: 5. The generator makes an electrical current.
 
====Advantages====
*Can work continuously.
*Power supply can be varied depending on demand.
*Few power stations needed to supply a large number of houses.
 
====Disadvantages====
*Cost of fuel.
*Produce Carbon Dioxide contributing to global warming.
*Other pollutants produced which can harm health or produce acid rain.
*Crude Oil will run out.
==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Crude oil''' is a [[mixture]] of different [[hydrocarbon]]s, mostly [[alkane]]s, formed in an [[anoxic]] environment over millions of years from the remains of dead sea creatures trapped in the [[sediment]] at the bottom of the sea.
