(a)
Interpretation:
The factors that motivate Iceland to cut its ties to fossil fuels name should be provided.
Concept introduction:
Fuels: Any substance that gives heat or any other form of energy by burning or reacting with any other substance is called as fuels.
Fossil fuels: - formed by natural processes
These fuels are formed millions of years ago when animals and aquatic animals were buried and compressed at the bottoms of swamps and seas.
Over time, organic matters were changed to fossil fuels by bacterial decay and pressure.
Examples: petroleum (oil), gas and coal.
(b)
Interpretation:
The tangible outcomes have resulted to date need to be explain.
Concept introduction:
Electronic Vehicle: A hybrid electronic vehicle augments an electronic vehicle (EV) with a second source of power referred to as the alternative power unit.
Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV): It is relies at least two energy sources, usually an international combustion engine and an electric battery together with motor (or) generator.
It combines one of the energy conversion technologies, one of the energy storage systems a power unit and a vehicle propulsion system. Many combinations are possible although batteries are by far the most popular choice for energy storage.
The combination of conventional and electric and electric propulsion system is believed to offer the possibility of reducing emission and fuel consumption and giving consumers the extended range and converting refueling.
(c)
Interpretation:
How can lessons learned in Iceland be relevant where you live, the reason should be explain.

Hydrogen economy: It is advancement of science and technology we realize in order to make our lives comfortable fossil fuels are depending at an alarming rate and will be exhausted soon. The electricity cannot be stored to run automobiles. It is not possible to store and transport nuclear energy. Hydrogen is another alternative source of energy and hence called as Hydrogen Economy.

You will divide it into three 1.5 g portions in separate 125 mL Erlenmeyer flasks savıng some for melting point analysis. Dissolve the mixture in each flask in ~60mL of DI water by heating to boiling on a hotplate. Take the flasks off the hotplate once you have a clear solution and let them stand on the bench top for 5 mins and then allow them to cool as described below. Sample A-Let the first sample cool slowly to room temperature by letting it stand on your lab bench, with occasional stirring to promote crystallization. Sample B-Cool the second sample 1n a tap-water bath to 10-15 °C Sample C-Cool the third sample in an ice-bath to 0-2 °C Results: weight after recrystalization and melting point temp.
