Answer: ELECTRICAL ENERGY to CHEMICAL ENERGY to SOUND ENERGY.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are laws governing the conservation of energy in physics. The first law of thermodynamics states that in a closed system, energy can neither be created nor destroyed during transformation. With this, the total energy of a given system always remains constant.

This first law of thermodynamics which arouse from special relativity, says that changes in the energy of systems will also coincide with changes in a measure of its energy content.

The ELECTRICAL energy from the outlet charger is transformed and stored as CHEMICAL energy in the battery of the phone. This in turn is converted to SOUND energy when the phone rings.
