What is the energy stored in petroleum and coal called?
Fossil fuel. Also, natural gas is in the category of fossil fuels.
How did the solar energy get stored in the fossil fuels?
When the trees and vegetation were growing they took in solar energy through photosynthesis. This energy was stored in the plants as hydrocarbons. It remains there as the plants, over millions of years, become fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
When a firecracker explodes stored chemical energy changes into sound and light energywhat other type of energy is also released during this transformation?
The energy of a firecracker is stored in the form of gunpowder , a solid . The energy is released by ignition , where it is first transformed to heat energy , then to a gas , which causes the explosion , or release of energy.
How is energy different from work?
They have the same units- Joules - so can be equated. Work is something actually done, and in doing work energy is expended, but you can also talk of doing work to store energy. For example in running a compressor to fill a cylinder with compressed gas, energy is supplied to the compressor motor, work is done by the compressor, and the result is stored energy in the gas. Fuels such as coal have potential or stored energy, which can be released to do work. So I think the fundamental is energy, but when energy is used, work results. Hope that makes sense!
What type of energy is released in a gas oven?
Heat energy
What kind of energy is stored in natural gas?
Potential energy is stored in natural gas.
What kind of energy stored in natural gas?
Potential energy is stored in natural gas.
What is the form in which energy is stored in natural gas?
Chemical potential energy is the form in which energy is stored in natural gas.
What is the form which energy is stored in natural gas?
Chemical potential energy is the form in which energy is stored in natural gas.
How is energy stored in natural gases and how is that energy released?
Natural gas is mostly methane, CH4, which is a hydrocarbon. When it burns with oxygen it releases thermal energy.
How is the energy stored in a natural gas released in a power station?
With current technology - as of 2015 - it is usually burned.
Heat from chemical energy?
Fuels such as oil, wood, coal, and natural gas have energy stored in them. This kind of energy is called chemical process of burning, the energy is released in the form of heat.
What form of energy in which energy is stored in natural gas?
not 100% sure, but try chemical potential energy.
What type of energy are you using when you turn on a car?
Cars usually run either on gasolene or on natural gas - that is, chemical energy. An electrical car would also have electrical energy stored in its batteries.Cars usually run either on gasolene or on natural gas - that is, chemical energy.

How can energy be stored in grain?
Energy can is stored in many grains. It is in the grain itself and released by eating , which converts it to energy. Or by turning it to to gas by refining etc.
Is gas in a gas tank chemical energy?
No, it's gas. There is chemical energy stored in the gasoline that can be released by burning it, which I suspect is what you were really trying to ask.
What is the energy stored In coal and petroleum?
Fossil fuel. Also, natural gas is in the category of fossil fuels.
