Solution

The correct option is D

Water gas


Fossil fuel is a hydrocarbon-containing material formed underground from the remains of dead plants and animals that humans extract and burn to release energy for use. The main fossil fuels are coal, petroleum and natural gas, which humans extract through mining and drilling. Water-gas is not a fossil fuel and water gas is produced by passing steam over red hot coke.
