When fuels are burned they transfer energy what type of energy is in the fuel and what energy is it converted into when its burned?
The energy that is contained in a consumable fuel (like gasoline) is chemical energy. The energy that it is converted into when it is burned is heat energy.
What is chemical energy converted in a car?
The chemical energy is stored in the fuel, ie gasoline or diesel, and released when it is burned in the engine.
Is gasoline matter or energy?
gasoline is matter, it is burned to create energy
When a car is driven the chemical energy in gasoline converted into?
Chemical energy is converted into heat energy which is then converted into mechanical energy
Why gasoline considered as chemical energy?
It is not. Gasoline is not energy. Rather, it HAS energy.If gasoline is burned or otherwise combines with oxygen, energy is released. This type of energy (related to how atoms are connected with one another) is called "chemical energy".
How is stored chemical energy converted into thermal energy when coal is burned to make steam?
It's converted by the coal being burned.
Explain why all the stored energy in gasoline does not transform to mechanical energy of a vehicle?
In many processes, part of the energy is lost - in the sense of getting converted into an unusable form of energy. This is no exception. Specifically, when a substance is burned - in this case the gasoline - the chemical energy is converted to heat energy, which is a "lower grade" type of energy. That is to say, it is no longer possible to convert all the heat into other types of energy.
When coal is burned this energy is converted into what energy?
Coke is formed
When fossil fuels are burned what is energy converted into?
Thermal energy
What new is formed when gasoline is burned?
energy for electronics
What kind of energy is coverted when you burn gasoline?
Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.
An example of something that stroes chemical energy is?
A battery stores chemical energy which can be converted to electrical energy on demand. Any fuel (gasoline, wood,fuel oil, etc) stores chemical energy which is released as heat when burned.
