Electrical energy is usually AC, because AC can be stepped up to higher voltages with a transformer for transmission over smaller wires, and then stepped back down to serviceble levels with another transformer.

What item converts chemical energy into electrical energy?

A battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Inside a battery, chemical reactions occur that generate electrons, resulting in an electrical potential difference between the battery terminals. This allows for the flow of electrons and the generation of electrical energy.


What is ac energy?

That probably refers to an AC current or an AC voltage. That means that the electrical current is not continuously flowing in one direction, but changes direction all the time - typically at a frequency of 50 or 60 cycles per second in the case of household current. Similar for the voltage.
