Explanation: Thermal energy is heat. It's converted from either electrical potential energy or chemical<span> potential energy, depending on the cooking appliance. An electric stove converts electric potential energy to thermal energy. And a gas stove converts chemical potential energy to thermal energy.</span>

(Light, sound, motion, and heat.) I'm Not Taking Credit For It, Because I Didn't Come Up With That Answer.</span>
