Why did the balloon stick to the wall during the demonstration?
What is the negatively charged balloon became attracted to the positive protons on the chalkboard?
500
Type of energy stored in bonds
What is chemical energy?

When you drop a tennis ball, it hits the floor and bounces back up. But, it does not reach the same height as before and each time bounce is smaller than the previous one. However, you notice the tennis ball is slightly warmer after it finishes bouncing. Explain how the law of conservation of energy is obeyed.
What is During each bounce, some of the kinetic energy of the ball in transfered into thermal energy. As a result, energy is not created or destroyed, but only changes form so that the law of conservation of energy is obeyed.

Explain how you can receive a shock.
What is you gain electrons from the carpet, touch a neutral object and feel the "shock" of the electrons leaving you and going to the object.
