The energy change in an electric fire involves the conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy (heat) and light. When an electric current flows through a resistive element, such as a heating coil, it encounters resistance, which produces heat due to the Joule heating effect. This thermal energy is what raises the temperature of the surrounding materials, potentially igniting combustible substances and producing visible flames. In summary, the primary energy change is from electrical energy to thermal energy and light.
