The situation is similar as when an object falls. Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (including rotational energy in this case); part of that kinetic energy is converted to heat energy.

It is conserved. The potential energy of the ball sitting at the top of the hill is converted into kinetic energy of the rolling ball.
Chemical energy
The answer is rather simple. Even though a billiard ball is smooth, when it rolls it imparts some of its kinetic energy to the felt covering of the table. That is, the felt heats up a bit as the ball slows down.
how does increasing the height of a ramp affect how far a ball rolls down the ramp

The potential energy gets less until the ball gets to the bottom of the hill, at which point the potential energy is zero. The potential energy that is lost, gets converted to Kinetic energy of the ball that goes faster and faster as it gets more and more of the Potential energy.
