Name the sources which uses in chemical reaction during energy generation |
| Answer» Any compound contains chemical energy that can be released when its chemical bonds are broken. Any substance that can be used as a fuel contains chemical energy. Examples of matter containing chemical energy include:\xa0\tCoal: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat.\tWood: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat.\tPetroleum: Can be burned to release light and heat or changed into another form of chemical energy, such as gasoline.\tChemical batteries: Store chemical energy to be changed into electricity.\tBiomass: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat.\tNatural gas: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat.\tFood: Digested to convert chemical energy into other forms of energy used by cells.\tCold packs: Chemical energy is absorbed in a reaction.\tPropane: Burned to produce heat and light.\tHot packs: Chemical reaction produces heat or thermal energy.\tPhotosynthesis: Changes solar energy into chemical energy.\tCellular respiration: A set of reactions that changes the chemical energy in glucose into chemical energy in ATP, a form our bodies can use. | |
