HP Laptop Overheat while sleep

[BCYTECH]

So yesterday I was casually browsing in my office on my HP Laptop and charging it to 100%. Then I unplug and pack my bag to go home and close the lid = sleep. When I got home, I notice that there is some heat coming out of my bag. I immediately unzip the bag and the laptop was so hot and decided to cool it down by air conditioning and fan. After cooling it down, I tried turning on the laptop but there seem to be no power (but I recalled that I charged it full). The only things that I left open was Firefox and Chrome Browser. 

Hence, can I some help me with this troubleshooting and find out what was the problem and how does a browser drain so much battery and release so much heat?

It might not enter sleep mode properly (awake from sleep)

 

Have you tried hard reset? (Press power button to turn off)

Yeah I used to notice this a lot (especially when I was in school and carried a laptop around more often) that sometimes leaving programs open especially browsers can pull your machine out of sleep or prevent it from going to sleep. 

 

Also if you have your laptop set to "Do nothing" on lid close while plugged in you might sometimes close the lid while it's still plugged in and then remove the power cable, in that case it will not be asleep as your laptop doesn't check to see if the lid is closed, it just checks the initial lid close action.

@Theguywhobea Just checked with my settings. It have already set both plugged in & on battery to sleep when lid is close...

Hey @GeneXiS_X & @Theguywhobea...Is it normal for Chrome to be utilizing this much? If not, how do I reduce the consumption?
