yes
When you burn a fossil fuel, the potential energy stored in the fuel is converted into kinetic energy, heat, and light. This process releases energy that can be used to generate electricity, power vehicles, and provide heat for various applications.

For the potential energy of fossil fuels to change into other forms of energy, combustion must take place. In this process, heat energy is released, which can be transformed into other forms of energy like electrical energy in power plants or mechanical energy in engines.
Fossil fuel in itself is simply an example of potential energy, which can be changed to mechanical energy by burning, thus changing from potential energy to heat energy and then to mechanical energy.
Coal is a fossil fuel, which possesses potential chemical energy. It is not nuclear or kinetic
Yes, the type of energy stored by fossil fuels such as coal is chemical potential energy. This energy is released when the fossil fuel is burned and chemical reactions occur, resulting in the production of heat and other forms of energy such as electricity.
Fossil fuels represent chemical energy, a form of potential energy. This energy was stored in the hydrocarbon molecules and can be released by oxidation (burning).
I would actually describe the energy as chemical, as the energy is being used to hold the chemical bonds of the hydrocarbons together. But it is certainly not kinetic, so give these two choices the answer is potential. It is potential energy waiting for a chemical reaction.
When a fossil fuel is burned, the chemical energy stored in the fuel is converted into heat energy. This heat energy is then used to heat water, produce steam, and drive turbines to generate kinetic energy, which can be used to produce electricity or power machinery.
