It CAN be converted to kinetic energy, but it won't always do so.
It is tranferred/converted into kinetic energy (DECREASES)
Potential - Kinetic - Potiential again as you drop the yo yo, the potential energy it had at its height is converted to kinetic energy. as it starts to come back up, it is converted back to potential energy
At the bottom , where all potential energy has been converted to kinetic
Kinetic energy and potential energy are not usually proportional. In the general situation, you can't derive potential energy from kinetic energy. In specific cases, sometimes you can - especially if you assume that potential energy that existed previously got converted to kinetic energy, or vice versa.Kinetic energy and potential energy are not usually proportional.

An exothermic reaction and the change between potential and kinetic.
No, a ball sitting at the top of a hill has potential energy, but once that ball starts to roll down the hill it's potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, the energy of motion. I disagree 100% with this edit. If a ball is rolling down hill and is say half way down it still has potential energy ready to be converted to kinetic energy So the answer is YES
No. It stores potential chemical energy and burning it produces an exothermic reaction as it oxidises.
can be converted to potential energy.
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.
It CAN be converted to kinetic energy, but it won't always do so.
Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
It is tranferred/converted into kinetic energy (DECREASES)
When a gas is heated the energy is converted to kinetic energy.
In a pendulum, the energy transformations involve potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as the pendulum swings back and forth. At the highest point of the swing, the pendulum has maximum potential energy, which is then converted to maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point of the swing. This process continues as the pendulum oscillates, with energy being continually converted between potential and kinetic forms.
by force
Some of its potential energy changes to kinetic energy.
