Electrons, that is why it is called electrical energy!!
Ina battery one substance loses the electrons and the other substance gains electrons. No one substance loses and gains electrons. When anode substance has lost too many electrons to the cathode, we say the battery is discharged.
In the case of an electric generator, the electrons are forced to move thru a coil of wire as it spins in a magnetic field. In the picture below an outside force such as steam pressure makes the coil of wire spin causing the electrons in wire to move. The electrons move thru the coil of wire, thru a resistance like a bulb and back to the coil of wire. It is called a complete circuit. In this case, no electrons were lost or gained.
A generator is a motor backwards. In a motor, the electric energy produces a magnetic field in the armature, which produces a North and South pole in the iron core of the armature, which causes the north pole of the armature to be attracted to the south pole of the magnet. In a generator, an outside force such as steam pressure turns the magnets around the armature, causing the electrons on the wire to move. In this case, however as the magnet is spun, it produces a like pole on the armature. In other words, as you turn the North pole of the magnet towards the armature, it produces a north pole in the armature. That is why energy is required to turn the armature. If you could turn the magnet and it produced an opposite pole on the armature, the armature would be attracted to that pole and spin with no more outside force needed. You would have a perpetual motion machine.
What else can I help you with?
When hotter atoms c they transfer their energy to colder atoms?
When hotter atoms come into contact with colder atoms, energy is transferred from the hotter atoms to the colder ones through collisions between the particles. This transfer of energy causes the colder atoms to gain kinetic energy and increase their temperature. Heat flows from hot to cold until thermal equilibrium is reached.
What is a group of atoms held together by energy?
A group of atoms held together by energy is called a molecule. The atoms are bound together by chemical bonds, which are formed by the sharing or transfer of electrons between the atoms. The energy that holds the atoms together is the result of these bonds.
How does a Nuclear Fission Power Plant Operates?
The energy of fission of fissile atoms is transformed in heat and electricity.
Chemical energy is the potential energy of?
Chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules. This energy is released when these bonds are broken in a chemical reaction, often producing heat or light as a result.
What are conduction electrons?
Conduction electrons are electrons that are free to move within a material and participate in the conduction of electricity. In metals, conduction electrons come from the outermost energy levels of atoms, where the electrons are not tightly bound to the individual atoms. These mobile electrons are responsible for the high electrical conductivity of metals.
What motion of energy does the motion of atoms and molecules produce?
heat...

Explain the energy transfer on the atomic level?
Energy transfer on the atomic level occurs through interactions such as collisions between atoms or through electromagnetic forces like radiation. When atoms collide, kinetic energy is transferred from one atom to another. Electromagnetic forces can transfer energy through the emission or absorption of photons by atoms.
How is the energy from the nuclei of atoms is converted into electricity?
nuclear fission
Transfer of thermal energy through atoms contacting other atoms?
Not likely. Atoms are mostly empty space.
Which type of energy works by removing electrons from atoms to produce electricity?
solar
What kind of atoms are in nuclear energy?
A fission of energy atoms generating nuclear energy that is used to produce electricity.
What is transfer of energy to one particle to another?
ConductionMeasure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms in an object
Which type of energy works removing electrons from atoms to produce electricity?
solar
How does radiant waves transfer heat energy?
By exciting the atoms in the matter. Pr. definition, heat is the jiggling of atoms, the radiant energy is shaking the atoms, by doing this the heat is transferred and absorbed.
How does nuclear energy transfer one place to another?
it transfers by atoms
What is a group of atoms held together by energy?
A group of atoms held together by energy is called a molecule. The atoms are bound together by chemical bonds, which are formed by the sharing or transfer of electrons between the atoms. The energy that holds the atoms together is the result of these bonds.
