HELP Between steps 2 and 3, the chemical energy in the coal is converted to

electrical energy

mechanical energy

transitional energy

heat energy

Mechanical

Explanation:

"Steam from the boiler spins the blades of an engine called a turbine, transforming heat energy from burning coal into mechanical energy that spins the turbine engine. 5. The spinning turbine is used to power a generator, a machine that turns mechanical energy into electric energy."

The Sun is involved in the formation of most of the energy sources on Earth. It is even involved in the formation of fossil fuels. Thus, the Sun is the ultimate source of energy for any energies derived from the fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are made when plants use solar energy to make chemical energy in the form of sugar. When the plants die, they are compressed and form coal.

When the coal is burned, the chemical energy in the coal is converted into heat energy which is used to make steam. The steam causes a turbine (i.e., a very large fan blade) to turn thus producing mechanical energy. As the turbine turns, electrical energy is generated which can then be transmitted through power lines.

explanation:

covalent bonds

consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms to fixed orientation and requre high energies to break them

ionic bonds

when two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity, then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. this results in a positively charged ion(cation) and a negatively charged ion (anion)

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
