There are a number of ways that this can be done, including both direct and indirect methods. The most common way is actually an indirect method. This is how the very large majority of electricity is produced in the world. It is done by burning a chemical fuel to produce heat. The most common fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas (although anything that can be burned would work too). The heat from the burning is then used to heat a liquid, such as water, which is turned to steam. The pressure from the steam then spins a turbine, and it is the spinning turbine which actually makes the electricity. This is also how nuclear energy is used to make electricity: not directly, but by using the heat of nuclear fission reactions to heat water to spin a turbine. It is the spinning turbine that makes electricity by spinning a magnet inside a coil of copper wire.
You can also make electricity directly from chemical fuels by using electrochemistry. Here, chemicals are oxidized and reduced and the electrons involved in that reaction are passed through an external circuit. This is how batteries work. To do this, you need to match up two chemicals properly: one that will be oxidized, and one that will be reduced. The one that is oxidized will give up it's electrons to the one that will be reduced, and those electrons being transfered create a current which can be used as electricity. If the chemicals are paired properly, this reaction will happen spontaneously, and electricity will be generated (if not paired correctly, then it will require electricity to drive the reaction).
The last way is in something called a photoelectrochemical cell, which is just a special kind of solar cell. Basically, it uses a combination of both chemical energy and also solar energy to drive a reaction that produces electricity (this is different from standard silicon-based solar cells that you might see on somebody's house, where no chemical reaction occurs).
Draw load current from a battery is another way to convert chemical energy to electrical energy.
There are several ways to do this including:
Combustion to heat steam that then runs through a turbine connected to a generator.
Electrochemical reactions - like you get in batteries
Fuel cells
dry cell batteries..
A battery for example. In a lead-acid cell it is the action between the acid and the lead plates
It changes mechanical energy into electrical energy. Hope that helps.
Chloroplast convert light energy. Mitochondria convert chemical energy itself
Electrical energy can be converted into chemical energy through a process called electrolysis, which involves passing an electric current through a substance (such as water) to break down its molecular components and store the energy in chemical bonds. This process can produce hydrogen gas or other chemical compounds that store the electrical energy for later use in fuel cells or other applications.
Electric lights (light/heat), electric motors (mechanical energy), heaters (heat), batteries under charge (chemical energy).
Batteries produce electrical energy through a chemical reaction that converts stored chemical energy into electrical energy. This electrical energy can then be used to power various devices.
Chemical energy to electrical energy.
They convert a chemical reaction into electrical energy.
convert chemical energy into electrical energy
convert chemical energy into electrical energy
A battery or a fuel cell converts chemical energy directly to electrical energy
A battery is a device that can convert electrical energy into chemical energy for storage. In a battery, chemical reactions occur that release energy in the form of electricity when needed.
Yes
No, a cell in biology is the basic structural and functional unit of a living organism. However, in electrical terms, a cell is a device that can convert chemical energy into electrical energy, such as in a battery.
A battery
Chemical energy. Batteries also convert chemical energy to electrical energy.
no, its chemical energy to electrical energy.
A battery is an example of a device that transfers chemical energy into electrical energy. Inside a battery, chemical reactions convert stored energy into electrical energy, which can then be used to power electronic devices.
