1. when a substance looses electrons it is a oxidation reaction.
2. when a substance gains electrons it is a reduction reaction

Explanation:

• First question: Potential energy is defined as the capacity to do work due to an object's position or state. Thermal energy is related to heat, chemical energy is in chemical bonds, and kinetic energy is due to motion.
• Second question: ATP stores energy in its phosphate bonds. This is a form of potential energy as it is stored and can be used later (like potential to do work). Kinetic is motion - related, heat is thermal, and light is electromagnetic.

Answer:

• First question: Potential energy
• Second question: Potential energy
