When wood burns is it thermal energy converted to chemical energy?

No, it's the other way around. Burning releases the chemical energy in wood and turns it into thermal energy(heat.

Which type of sources can result in burns?
Thermal, Electrical, Chemical (All of the above)
When gasoline burns what kind of energy does it change into?
Thermal energy
What energy of coal is released as it burns?
chemical energy into heat energy
What form of energy is being used as a candle burns?
The chemical energy stored in the candle wax.
When a gas stove burns propane gas to cook food what energy transformation is taking place?
chemical energy to heat energy
What kind of energy transition is happening in an oven if the oven burns gas to cook food?
The burning of gas is chemical energy, and it creates thermal energy (heat, which is mechanical energy) to cook the food. Chemical energy is converted into thermal energy in the gas oven.
A process that converts chemical energy into thermal energy?
When something burns is how chemical energy turns into thermal energy like getting a lighter and burning paper.
When a match burns chemical energy is changed into thermal and what type of energy?
Light
Is food being digested and used to regulate body temperature A conversion of chemical energy to thermal energy?
yes because the rainbow dancing unicorn burns the inside of a humans body when food is digested so there is a conversion from the chemical to thermal energy.
What form of energy is produced when you use the candle?
When you light a candle, it burns the wax. That is chemical energy. The thermal energy is produced as the lighted wick continue to burn the wax. It also gives out light as it burns.
What type of energy changes take place when a candle burns?
Chemical energy changes into thermal energy and light energy.
Which type of sources can result in burns?
Thermal, Electrical, Chemical (All of the above)
Burning of wood what transformation of energy is it?
When wood burns, chemical energy is transformed into heat
What energy is released as wax burns?
Thermal or Heat energy
When gasoline burns what kind of energy does it change into?
Thermal energy
When wood is burned a lot of energy is produced. Is the conservation of energy law applicable in this case?
Conservation laws are in force when a candle burns. Chemical changes occur in the materials involved in the burning, but all the atoms in the candle and the air (which supplies the oxygen needed for burning) are present in the byproducts of combustion. Nothing is lost. Chemical bonds are broken when a candle burns, and chemical energy in the molecules in the wax or paraffin is converted into thermal energy (heat) and released. But nothing is "lost" in the reaction and conservation laws are not broken.
Explain the type of energy released when fossil fuels are burned?
Basically the same as when any substance burns. Mainly heat energy.
