Question

In which device is chemical energy transformed into electrical energy?

Answer 1

Answer:

A Rechargeable Battery

Explanation:

That is roughly what happens when a secondary cell is recharged (rechargeable battery.) Electric current transforms one chemical species with a lower energy level into another with a higher energy level. When the battery is loaded, this energy can be released. Strictly speaking, no conversion occurs: chemical energy is electrical energy! The energy of electrons in any particular substance, such as metal, are due to electron interactions with the nuclei in the substance and with each other. Electrons, in particular, occupy certain energy levels in metals. Because each metal has a distinct highest occupied energy level, electrons can alter their energies by traveling from one metal to another. An electrical current is made up of this movement!
