No. It stores potential chemical energy and burning it produces an exothermic reaction as it oxidises.

Does fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?

Fossil fuels like coal store potential energy in the form of chemical bonds. When they are burned, this potential energy is converted into heat energy (thermal energy) and released as a result of chemical reactions taking place. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, and while there may be kinetic energy involved in the burning process (e.g., moving particles in the flame), the primary form of energy stored in fossil fuels is potential energy.


Is coal a nuclear or motion energy?

Coal is a fossil fuel, which possesses potential chemical energy. It is not nuclear or kinetic


Is coal potential or kinetic energy?

Coal contains potential energy, which is energy that is stored within an object based on its position, composition, or state. When coal is burned, it releases this stored energy in the form of heat and light.


What type of energy does coal have?

coal have chemical energy


How does the coal source work?

The energy in coal is chemical energy. The usual way to extract it is to burn the coal converting it to heat energy. This can then be turned into electrical energy Fuels like gasoline and coal are sources of energy which means they store energy


What is four things that are stores of chemical energy as potential energy?

Fuels like gasoline, coal, and natural gas store chemical energy. Batteries store chemical energy as potential energy for later use. Food stores chemical energy in the form of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Biomass such as wood and ethanol store chemical energy.


What is the relationship between non-renewable resource and chemical energy?

Nonrenewable fossil fuels, like oil and coal, store a lot chemical energy in the bonds between its molecules. When these fossil fuels are burned, the chemical energy is released.


Is an unburned lump of coal kinetic or potential?

An unburned lump of coal is in a state of potential energy, as it has the potential to release energy when burned. Kinetic energy is associated with motion, which is not present in the unburned lump of coal.


How do coal emits energy?

It's kinetic


In what form does coal store energy from the sun?

Coal stores energy from the sun in the form of chemical energy. This energy is stored through the process of photosynthesis when plants capture sunlight and convert it into organic compounds through photosynthesis. Over time, these organic compounds are transformed into coal through geological processes.


What type of energy is in coal?

chemical energy is stored in coal


Is coal an example of chemical energy?

Depends how you form energy from coal. But, manly yes since chemical change takes place with all processes.
