Figure \PageIndex2: (a) The Statue of Liberty is covered with a copper skin, and was originally brown, as shown in this painting. (b) Exposure to the elements has resulted in the formation of the blue-green patina seen today.

It explains chemical potential energy found in substances such as gasoline and dynamite, highlighting how energy is released through combustion. Additionally, it addresses the properties of dynamite, particularly its instability due to nitroglycerin, and methods to stabilize it to avoid unintended explosions.
