While burning coal and charcoal, you notice that coal releases more heat than charcoal. That means that the... 1. elastic energy 2.gravitational energy 3.chemical potential energy is 1.lower 2. higher in charcoal than in coal

Respuesta :

Answer:

3). Chemical potential energy

1). lower in charcoal than in coal.

Explanation:

Chemical potential energy is defined as the energy that can be absorbed or stored in a substance's chemical bonds. It can be released when there is a change in the number of particles of the substance.

As per the question, coal releases more heat than charcoal because 'the chemical potential energy of charcoal is lower than the coal' and hence, the latter would release more heat on burning i.e. the energy that was absorbed in the chemical bonds of the substance. Hence, option 3 and 1 are the correct answers.
