What energy takes place when coal is burned?
When coal is burned, chemical energy changes to thermal energy. The energy of sunlight was stored in the organic molecules of dead plants, which were compressed and altered to form long-chain hydrocarbons. Burning the coal oxidizes these molecules, releasing heat.
What energy transformation takes place when you turn a radio?
sound to electric energy
Why flame is observed during the burning of a substance?
During combustion, energy is released. Some of this energy takes the form of light, making the flame visible.
What energy change takes place when two atoms form a covalent bond?
