Want this question answered?
When fuels are burnt, the chemical potential energy in the fuels is converted into heat and light energy. Initially, such energy will be converted to heat. In a fire, part of that will be radiated away as infrared radiation or light; it is also common that the heat will increase the pressure and make things expand - which is what happens in a gasoline or diesel engine.
The energy that is contained in a consumable fuel (like gasoline) is chemical energy. The energy that it is converted into when it is burned is heat energy.
Burning fuels, chemical energy is converted to heat energy
Chemical energy.
The potential chemical energy in fossil fuels and food was stored by plants that converted the sun's radiant energy into chemical energy.
Well, fossil fuels are burned which heat boilers, this creates steam which spins turbinescreating electricity.
Basically the same as when any substance burns. Mainly heat energy.
i had asked everybody yet i did not get a answer so i looked in the libiary and found a book on energy transfers, the energy transfer for bio-fuel is chemical>electrical simple as that hope i helped:)

Condensation; is the change from gaseous phase into liquid phase
The energy that is contained in a consumable fuel (like gasoline) is chemical energy. The energy that it is converted into when it is burned is heat energy.
Afuel is a material that releases energy when it burns. These fossil fuels---energy-rich substances ormed from the remains of organisms or as you might say; plants and animals.That was just a reminder for you,the real answer is right here:The potential chemical energy in fossil fuels and food was stored by plants that converted the sun's radiant energy into chemical energy. Now that was the real answer, oyur welcome,Tracey Nichole Gordon.
It burns fossil fuels
The energy in fuels is chemical energy - a type of potential energy.
the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
According to science, if society does not conserve energy, fossil fuels will be exhausted. That could be a disaster for future generations.
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
