Ahmed Daugherty · Answer 1

The corect answer is B The chemical energy should be equal to the electrical energy.

Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy is the first law of Thermodynamics which state that the total amount of energy of the Universe is fixed. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. Energy can only be transformed from one state to another state.

From the study of the first law of Thermodynamics it can be said that the correct statement is the chemical energy should be equal to the electric energy.
