The term used for the process in which radiant energy is converted into potential energy is "photosynthesis." In this process, plants convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in the form of glucose.
When potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, it is transformed into the energy of motion.
No, it does not violate the law of conservation of energy. When a particle falls, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. The total energy (potential + kinetic) remains constant, demonstrating the conservation of energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy in a mass of matter that is in motion, the energy of motion. Potential energy (where mass is in a gravity field) can be converted into kinetic energy Chemical energy (of an explosion) can be converted into kinetic energy Electrical energy can be converted into kinetic energy (eg in an electric motor)
Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy. For example, when an object is released from a height, its potential energy due to gravity is converted into kinetic energy as it falls. This conversion follows the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

Photosynthesis
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.

Sunlight is converted into chemical energy- food
Sunlight/energy is made into food for the plant
Plant chloroplasts convert the energy of sunlight into chemical energy in the form of glucose through a process called photosynthesis. This chemical energy is used by the plant for growth, reproduction, and metabolism.

yes sunlight is a form of potential energy
It CAN be converted to kinetic energy, but it won't always do so.
