Explanation:

  • Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, like atoms and molecules. This energy is released when a chemical reaction takes place.
  • Usually, once chemical energy has been released from a substance, that substance is transformed into a completely new substance.
  • Chemical energy is stored in the bonds that connect atoms with other atoms and molecules with other molecules. Because chemical energy is stored, it is a form of potential energy.
  • When a chemical reaction takes place, the stored chemical energy is released.
  • Heat is often produced as a by-product of a chemical reaction – this is called an exothermic reaction.
  • The food we eat contains stored chemical energy. As the bonds between the atoms in food loosen or break, a chemical reaction takes place, and new compounds are created.
  • The energy produced from this reaction keeps us warm, helps us move, and allows us to grow. Different foods store different amounts of energy.
  • Dry wood contains stored chemical energy. When you burn that wood in a fireplace, chemical energy is released and converted into thermal energy (heat) and light energy.
