What else can I help you with?
Can electrical energy be converted to chemical energy?
Yes, electrical energy can be used to drive chemical reactions that store energy in chemical bonds, thereby converting it to chemical energy. This is how processes like electrolysis work, where electrical energy is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases.
What chemical form do potatoes store their energy?
Potatoes store their energy in the form of starch, which is a complex carbohydrate made up of glucose units. Starch serves as a long-term energy reserve for the potato plant.
Why is gasoline a chemical energy?
Gasoline is considered a chemical energy source because it is a compound made up of hydrocarbons that store energy in the form of chemical bonds. When gasoline is burned, these bonds are broken, releasing energy in the form of heat and kinetic energy that can be harnessed to power vehicles or machinery.
A device that uses chemicals to generate and store electricity?
Energy storage is accomplished by devices or physical media that store energy to perform useful operation at a later time. A device that stores energy is sometimes called an accumulator.All forms of energy are either potential energy (e.g. Chemical, gravitational, electrical energy, etc.) or kinetic energy (e.g. thermal energy). A wind-up clock stores potential energy (in this case mechanical, in the spring tension), abattery stores readily convertible chemical energy to operate a mobile phone, and a hydroelectric dam stores energy in a reservoir as gravitational potential energy. Ice storage tanks store ice (thermal energy) at night to meet peak demand for cooling. Fossil fuels such as coal and gasoline store ancient energy derived from sunlight by organisms that later died, became buried and over time were then converted into these fuels. Even food (which is made by the same process as fossil fuels) is a form of energy stored in chemical form.
Energy stored in the atoms and molecules of a substance is?
potential energy. This energy is stored in the form of chemical bonds between the atoms and molecules of a substance. When these bonds are broken or rearranged, this potential energy can be released as heat or used to do work.
Does a dam store up chemical energy?
No it stores potential energy.
What stored energy in plants?
Batteries and plants store cell energy. Humans also store cell energy until it is needed. If there was no way to save energy all cells would be used up and the body, battery or plant would be dead.
Can electrical energy be converted to chemical energy?
Yes, electrical energy can be used to drive chemical reactions that store energy in chemical bonds, thereby converting it to chemical energy. This is how processes like electrolysis work, where electrical energy is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases.
How do you convert electrical energy into potential energy?
You can use the electricity to pump water up into a high reservoir, where it then has mechanical potential energy. Or store it in a battery - chemical potential energy.
Why would a bicycle dynamo be considered a generator?
Because it is a generator. It picks up kinetic energy from the wheel, and turns it into electric energy.
What chemical form do potatoes store their energy?
Potatoes store their energy in the form of starch, which is a complex carbohydrate made up of glucose units. Starch serves as a long-term energy reserve for the potato plant.

Why don't we convert mechanical energy of fan into electrical energy using dynamo?
A fan needs energy to work. Suppose we use a dynamo, driven by the fan. The output of the dynamo is supposed to drive the fan. In this loop, some energy leaks away, into moving air not captured by the arrangement set up to drive the dynamo. More energy is lost in the working of the fan, and of the dynamo, appearing as heat and wear. If we provide this system with 100 joules to start it off, soon all that energy will have leaked away and pretty quickly the thing will stop working. On the other hand, if your fan is a windmill driven by external sources (wind), then the wind energy can be converted to useful energy. But not to drive the windmill.
Is wood has stored energy?
Yes, wood is made up of fibers and cells that store energy in the form of chemical bonds. When wood is burned, this stored energy is released as heat and light.
Is chemical energy used up when the battery energy is used up?
Yes.
What is a chemical energy made up of?
It is made up of atoms that connect and make energy
