What are some example of chemical energy?

Answer 1

Some examples are matches, gas or other types of fuel, and batteries, water building stalagmites from a cave ceiling. making of salt, gasoline, sugar, fire burning, anything that chemically changes

Plants, for instance create food by the process of photosynthesis, that is probably one of the most studied chemical energy examples. Plants and trees absorb solar energy and use it to turn carbon dioxide and water present in the atmosphere to oxygen and sugar (sucrose, fructose, etc). Just like fats in animals are used for storing energy, the sugar molecules produced by the process of photosynthesis are stored by plants for gaining energy. These sugar compounds that constitute an integral part of trees, plants, fruits and vegetables are the sources of chemical energy in plants and trees. When animals feed on the fruits and vegetables and other parts of plants, these sugar molecules provide energy to the animals. Read more on formula for photosynthesis.

Chemical energy - Energy produced or absorbed in the process of a chemical reaction. In such a reaction, energy losses or gains usually involve only the outermost electrons of the atoms or ions of the system undergoing change; here a chemical bond of some type is established or broken without disrupting the original atomic or ionic identities of the constituents. Chemical changes, according to the nature of the materials entering into the change, may be induced by heat (thermochemical), light (photochemical), and electric (electrochemical) energies.

• matchstick, candles, batteries, and fuel cells are just a few of the many examples of chemical energy

Answer 2

There are so many examples of chemical energy. Some of the common ones include burning wood, evaporation, vaporization, liquefaction and so many more.
