We usually refer to reactions where chemical energy is converted to heat energy as being "exothermic". When a reaction is exothermic, it will result in the release of heat unless the energy being released is taken up by some other mechanism - for example by the expansion of a gas. The second law of thermodynamics pretty much guarantees that at least SOME of the energy released in an exothermic reaction will wind up as heat.
The energy comes from the breaking of chemical bonds.
Some examples: -- light a match -- light a candle -- burn oil in a furnace -- burn charcoal in the barby -- mix plaster and water -- break the capsule inside self-heating gloves or socks
What else can I help you with?
Where is the Suns energy stored in the process of photosynthesis?
The Sun's energy is stored in the form of chemical energy in the bonds of glucose molecules produced during photosynthesis. This energy can be later released when needed by the organism for various metabolic processes.
What organisms are able to trap the suns energy into chemical energy as food?
Organisms such as plants, algae, and some bacteria are able to trap the sun's energy through the process of photosynthesis. They convert this energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which serves as food for themselves and other organisms higher up in the food chain.
Atp stores energy in the form of what?
Energy is obtained through dephosphorylation. This is why, during energy uses, ATP turns into ADP. The breaking of a phosphate bond releases chemical energy to do cellular work.
Photosynthesis converts solar energy into what type of energy?
chemical energy
Does photosynthesis need the suns heat energy or the suns light energy?
Photosynthesis primarily relies on the sun's light energy, which is captured by chlorophyll in plant cells to drive the photosynthetic process. While some heat energy may be generated as a byproduct of photosynthesis, it is not the main source of energy for the process.
What chemical is the suns energy stored?
hydrogen
What is the kind of energy that leaves convert the suns light energy into?
simple: chemical energy: )
What device that turns chemical energy into electrical energy?
A battery is a device that turns chemical energy into electrical energy by using chemical reactions to generate a flow of electrons.
The chemical change of the sun's energy into glucose and oxygen-?
Photosynthesis is the chemical change of the suns energy into glucose and oxygen.
Does nuclear energy store chemical energy?
no it does not store chemical energy it turns into thermal energy:)
What source of energy do organisms use if they don't use the suns energty?
Chemical energy
What is the device that turns chemical energy into electrical energy?
A device that turns chemical energy into electrical energy is called a battery. Batteries store and release electrical energy through chemical reactions happening inside them.
What turns light energy into chemical energy?
A Tree
What is the chemical change of the suns energy into gluclose and oxygen?
Its called "Photosynthesis"
What is the process where plants and some other organisms convert the suns radiant energy into chemical energy?
photosynthesis
What is the sour of energy for producer?
The SOURCE of energy for producers is the sun, plants convert the suns light from light energy to into chemical energy.
What is the energy producing organelle in a plant cell?
Chloroplast, Chloroplasts is the site of photosynthesis, where the suns energy is turned into chemical energy
