Chemical energy plays a critical role in various everyday applications, from powering batteries through zinc and manganese dioxide reactions to enabling the explosive capabilities of substances like nitroglycerin and gunpowder.
Petrol and diesel do
utilise chemical
reactions alongside
oxygen and
electricity, it produces
combustion, which in
turn produces rotational
energy when connected
to a generator can
produce electricity
Subtopic
Alkaline is another
example of chemical
energy in everyday life.
Batteries can work
because there is both
negative and positive
charge because there is
zinc and manganese
dioxide.
Explosives also use
chemical reactions to
their advantage, with
some using nitroglycerin
others using uranium or
pure gunpowder.
Explosives ignite under
different circumstances
that trigger a chain
reaction, often related to
heat.
An airbag releases a
signal 15 milliseconds
after detecting a crash.
Then, an electric igniter
ignites the chemical
compound, fully inflating
the airbag within 45
milliseconds after the
signal activates the
electric igniter.
