No, the energy that powers a computer is electrical energy. Chemical energy is energy that is stored in the bonds of molecules. Batteries, candles, matches and food are some things that have chemical energy. When the molecules/compounds' bonds are broken, the chemical energy is released. In a candle, this would cause a small fire. Electrical energy is the movement of electrons. The electrons move quickly inside the wire, & power the computer as electricity.

What is energy that comes from bonds within matter called?
It's called chemical energy, and it explains why some chemical reactions get hot and others get cold. The chemical energy locked up in gasoline is what allows your car to burn it and get enough power to move thousands of pounds of mass down the road. So, chemical energy is a force to be reckoned with!
What is a chemical formula for Solar power-energy?
photosynthesis
Which plant cell organelle converts chemical fuel into packets of chemical energy that can power the cell?
Mitochondria
How does oil give us energy?
Technically, oil does not "create" energy, oil already possesses potential chemical energy in its natural state. Oil may be burned or otherwise converted in a chemical process to release that energy and convert it to heat (directly), to electrical energy by means of powering a generator, or to mechanical energy as in an automobile engine.
What do chemical energy and nuclear energy have in common?
Both are used to produce thermal energy. Both are used to produce electrical energy for homes and businesses. Both are used to power ships and submarines via heat engines.

What does chemical energy mean in physics?
chemical energy,Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic. Reactions that require an input of heat to proceed may store some of that energy as chemical energy in newly formed bonds. The chemical energy in food is converted by the body into mechanical energy and heat. The chemical energy in coal is converted into electrical energy at a power plant. The chemical energy in a battery can also supply electrical power by means of electrolysis.
What energy is used to power a computer?
The energy used to power a computer is Electrical Energy.
Is a nuclear power station an example of chemical energy?
No. Nuclear energy is a type of energy that is quite different from chemical energy.
How does the battery get power?
From chemical energy.
How is energy transformed into power plants?
heat energy then chemical energy
What is a molecule that releases energy to power chemical reactions within a cell?
It is adenosine triphosphate, usually called ATP.
Who made energy and power?
energy and power are not made they are converted into other forms of energy or stored as chemical bond
Is an electrical outlet an example of chemical energy?
An electrical outlet is a physical object. It does not produce energy. What does produce the energy is electricity, which travels through the outlet to power your devices. Electricity is its own form of energy, called "electrical energy."So, no, an outlet is not an example of chemical energy.
Energy used to power a computer?
electrical energy
With what kind of energy does a battery power a camera?
Chemical and electrical energy are used. They power a camera.
Where in the power station will chemical energy be changed into heat energy?
yess chemical energy can turn in to heaat if it is prouduce and mixed with water/
