It is important to know that there are different types of stored energy, they are thermal energy, motion energy, radiant energy, chemical energy, nuclear energy, electrical energy, sound energy, and gravitational energy.

However, when we talk about mechanical energy, chemically stored potential energy is not a typical method because is about the potential energy in the bonds of atoms and molecules.

Hence, the answer is B.
