No, chemical energy is not converted into light by plants. However, i believe you simply phrased your question backwards. Plants absorb light energy from the sun and convert it into energy.

In other words, plants don't give off light;)

Nothing. Plants are not "converted" into chemical energy, their materials contain stored solar energy in the form of chemical energy.

How is light energy converted into heat energy?

Light energy is converted into heat energy when plants take in sunlight (light energy) and convert it into heat energy when they respire and produce energy.


Where are light waves captured and converted to chemical potential energy?

Photons.. and in case of plants - photos interact with the cells and energy is stored there .. remember photosynthesis? or was it something else


An unlit firecracker does it have potential energy?

Yes. Chemical potential energy. When you light it most (nothing is 100% efficient) of the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.


Why energy stored in green plants is classified as potential energy?

The energy stored in plants is classified as potential energy because they convert light energy into chemical potential energy stored in glucose.


Plants convert the energy of sunlight into the energy of motion carbon dioxide and water the potential energy of chemical bonds minerals kinetic energy?

That is light energy. Process is called photosynthesis


What form of energy is sunlight converted to?

Solar energy can be converted into electricity using photo-voltaic cells which are piezo-electric components and create a current when they are in light. Solar energy is also converted to usable heat using water based solar panels connected to a buildings radiators or hot water supply. Solar energy can also be converted into potential energy by certain wavelengths energising electrons in an atom to move to a different energy level. This is normally released back as light but will be a certain colour dependant on the wavelength absorbed. Solar energy can also be used to assist chemical reactions in plants using photosynthesis


What are the reactions in which light energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy called?

light-dependent reactions. such as photosynthesis in green plants.


When you light a candle enegy is changed to heat and energy?

Typically, chemical potential energy is converted into heat and light. When atoms light energy. It is this energy that you see released when the candle burns.


What is the primary energy conversion that occurs when plants produce sugar?

light energy is converted to chemical energy i.e. sunlight is converted to starch during photosynthesis.
