Question

will give brainliest!!! substances that absorb light convert it to ~color `~nuclear energy ~thermal energy ~electric energy

Answer 1

A chemical reaction proceeds as reactants collide to form products. Some reactions can be induced through the absorption of light or photons. When a molecule absorbs light it gets excited to a higher energy state, this energy is then released in the form of light or heat as the molecule returns to its ground state.

Hence, substances that absorb light can convert it to both, color (photon of a different wavelength) as well as thermal energy (heat).

Answer 2

During this reaction, carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose andoxygen. The reaction requires light energy, which is absorbed by a green substance called chlorophyll. Photosynthesis takes place in leaf cells. These containchloroplasts, which are tiny objects containing chlorophyll.
