Yes, that's right
Chemical that changes to heat that changes to mechanical.
A combustion engine converts chemical energy in gasoline to mechanical energy in the engine.
Gasoline is a form of chemical potential energy. When gasoline is burned in an engine, it is converted into thermal energy (heat) and mechanical energy (movement) to power the vehicle.
A gasoline engine converts chemical energy into mechanical energy.
When a car is driven, the chemical energy in gasoline is converted into mechanical energy by the engine. The combustion of gasoline in the engine produces heat, which is then converted into kinetic energy that propels the vehicle forward.
In a gasoline engine, the correct energy conversion sequence is as follows: chemical energy in gasoline is converted to thermal energy through combustion in the engine cylinders, which then creates mechanical energy to drive the car via the pistons and crankshaft.
Nothing "creates" energy. The chemical energy in gasoline can be converted to electrical energy by burning the gasoline in an internal combustion engine that's connected to a generator.
Chemical Energy into Mechanical Energy
The chemical energy becomes heat energy when the gasoline is burned. Oxidation releases chemical energy stored in the carbon-carbon bonds of fossil fuels and in the diatomic bonds of O2.
The chemical energy is stored in the fuel, ie gasoline or diesel, and released when it is burned in the engine.
Vegetables and fruits turn into chemical energy for your body.
In a gasoline engine, chemical energy from burning gasoline is converted into mechanical energy as the engine's pistons move up and down. This mechanical energy is then used to power the vehicle and overcome friction and other forces.
