Most computers receive electrical energy through a standard wall socket, others receive electrical energy from batteries.

Large mainframe computers sometimes receive electrical energy through cables wired directly to the main breaker box, without any plugs/sockets.

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 energy change that take place when you turn on a computer?

When you turn on a computer, electrical energy from the power source is converted into various forms of energy. Most notably, it is transformed into thermal energy (heat) as components like the CPU and power supply generate heat during operation. Additionally, electrical energy is converted into light energy for display screens and sound energy for speakers. Overall, the computer's operation involves the conversion of electrical energy into multiple forms to facilitate processing and user interaction.
