The body stores lipids ingested as fat and uses this energy when needed-chemical energy

A person's hat falls off and lands on the ground- gravitational energy

A wave of water pushes a surfer to shore- mechanical energy

A burner on a stove heats up a tea kettle- thermal energy

A power plant splits atoms to generate power for a city- nuclear energy

A nerve sends an impulse to another nerve- electrical energy

A plant absorbs the Sun's rays to start the process of photosynthesis- radiant energy

Explanation:

Gravitational energy is energy stored by an object as a consequence of its height.

Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position.

Chemical energy refers to energy stored in chemical bonds in a substance.

Thermal energy is a form of energy that exists due to temperature difference between two bodies.

Nuclear energy refers to energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.

Radiant energy refers to energy that moves through vacuum without passing through a material medium.

substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:

- the single bond remains single. a is wrong.

- the bond with hydrogen is as strong as with a halogen. c is wrong

- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. we do not know that so d is wrong.

- carbon will always have four valence electrons. e is wrong.

by elimination, the correct answer is b. the boiling point of the new compound increases.
