  1. 1. The potential energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
  2. 3. Energy stored in the bonds between atoms and molecules; breaking the bonds releases the energy
  3. 4. Energy where the vibration of particles travels through solids, liquids, and gases.
  4. 6. Electrons flowing through a circuit or through the air
  5. 7. The coldest temperature, 0 Kelvin, that can be reached. It is the hypothetical temperature at which all molecule motion stops.
  6. 11. Energy stored in an object as it is stretched or compressed
  7. 12. the energy an object has when it is falling
