Solution

1.Energy-to-matter conversion is accomplished in big particle accelerators. It takes huge amounts of energy to create the smallest particles. Don't eventhinkabout making atoms or larger structures. That's about the best we can do for the present.-Yes, in fact this was the underlying premise of the theory of relativity. Fundamentally, matter is super-ultra condensed energy. We can see this effect with nuclear, but our technology is only about 5% effective, and still there is an extreme amount of energy released.2.yes, also an example is seen in the case when, an electron and a positron combine together to give out radiations..this can be considered as energy converted into matter.
