Gasoline is not turned into energy. When we burn gasoline, it reacts with oxygen, breaking down and combining with it to become water vapor, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide. As this happens, energy stored in the chemical bonds is released. The new bonds in the products of this reaction do not contain as much energy.

What type of energy does a container of gasoline have?

A container of gasoline primarily contains chemical potential energy. This energy is stored within the chemical bonds of the gasoline molecules. When the gasoline is burned, this potential energy is converted into thermal energy (heat) and kinetic energy (movement), which can be harnessed to power engines and vehicles.
