Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy through a process called combustion. When a chemical reaction takes place, such as burning fuel, it releases stored chemical energy in the form of heat. This heat energy increases the temperature of the surroundings, converting chemical energy into thermal energy.

Why is chemical energy the energy that is converted to thermal energy?

Various kinds of energy may be converted into thermal energy.In a fire it is chemical energy that is converted to thermal energy.However:In a nuclear reactor, nuclear energy is first converted to thermal energy, and eventually to electrical energy.In a fire chemical energy is also converted to light energy.In a battery chemical energy is converted to electrical energy.In braking systems kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy.


When a match is burned chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and what energy?

radient energy


What is chemical to Thermal to Kinetic?

Chemical energy is energy stored in chemical bonds, which can be converted to thermal energy through a chemical reaction, such as combustion. Thermal energy is the internal energy of a substance due to the movement of its particles, and can be converted to kinetic energy when the substance's particles move in a specific direction to do work.


Which of the following energy conversion occurs inside in a battery electrical to chemical thermal to electrical or thermal to chemical?

None of them Chemical energy stored in the battery is converted into Electrical (with some heat / thermal 'wasted'). However if you recharge a battery you would get electrical to Chemical.


Examples of conversion from chemical energy to thermal energy?

Burning wood in a fireplace converts the chemical energy stored in the wood into thermal energy in the form of heat and light. When gasoline is burned in a car engine, the chemical energy in the gasoline is converted into thermal energy, powering the vehicle.
