Why are substances such as coal and gasoline used as fuel sources?

A.They have high kinetic energy, which can be converted into electrical or mechanical
energy
B.They have large amounts of energy stored in the chemical bonds which can be
converted into kinetic energy when combusted
C.They are able to easily make endothermic reactions, which can be harnessed and
converted into mechanical energy
D. None of the above statements are true

Respuesta :

Answer:

A.They have high kinetic energy, which can be converted into electrical or mechanical energy

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the fast-moving water turns turbines, which drive generators that produce electricity. The energy in fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas) is Chemical Potential Energy.
