A battery has chemical energy, which can be used to generate thermal and radiant energy in a lightbulb. Which best explains what happens to the amount of energy in this scenario?

In this situation, this wording is the clear example that energy IS NOT LOST BUT IS TRANSFORMED.

Explanation:

The galvanic currents that occur within the batteries, and the chemical reactions that occur within them without our realizing it, without energy emitters, energy that is capable of heating devices causing their temperature to rise, or even as it was mentioned that a small lamp lights up ... how does this happen? the energy is never lost, but is transformed, that chemical energy generated within the battery, transfers to the lamp generating the emission of photons and thus generating light, or in the case of generating heat, promotes exotherm by means of a conductive body .

Explanation:

A normally usually stores chemical energy which is then used to drive some application, generally this energy is converted to electrical energy.

In given example of a bulb, a bulb needs electricity to light up. So first the chemical energy shall be converted to electrical energy and when the bulb lights up, this electrical energy will be converted mainly in light energy and also in thermal as bulbs gets heated also

answer; i believe the correct answer is (general);

it's
