Question

select the correct answer. what are the types of energies released when a candle burns? o a. thermal and radiant o b. potential and electrical o c. chemical and nuclear o d. electrical and sound

Explanation:

When a candle burns, chemical energy in the wax is converted. Thermal energy (heat) is released as the wax burns, and radiant energy (light) is also emitted. Potential energy is stored energy (not released here), electrical energy involves electric charges (not relevant in a simple candle burn), chemical energy is the initial form (not the released types asked), nuclear energy involves atomic nuclei (not in a candle), and sound energy isn't a main energy released in a typical candle burn. So thermal and radiant are correct.

Answer:

A. thermal and radiant
