The Ten Percent Law refers to the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another.
You use chemical energy in almost every part of your daily life. Your body is the perfect example. The food you eat has chemical energy stored in the bonds of the compounds that make it up and digestion breaks those bonds down, releasing that energy. Another example might be driving your car to work; the chemical reaction of burning fuel releases the energy stored in the bonds of gasoline compounds. Anytime you are changing the chemical makeup of something, you have the potential to use chemical energy stored in the chemical bonds.
No, due to the fact machines loose energy due to heat/thermal energy. you will always loose some amount of energy.
