'''Energy''' is the ability to do work.<ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With [[Chemistry]]''. Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 1998</ref>  In [[physics]], energy is a conserved quantity, and a closed system of interacting particles is known to always have the same value for its energy; this is known as the law of conservation of energy.<ref>Halliday, Resnick, Walker: '' Fundamentals of Physics'', 6th Edition</ref> The SI unit of energy is [[joule]]. Energy can be converted into various forms like [[Potential energy]], [[Kinetic energy]], Chemical energy and Thermal energy, but it cannot be created or destroyed.
