Understand that chemical bonds involve interactions between atoms where energy changes occur during bond formation and bond breaking.
Recall that bond formation is an exothermic process, meaning energy is released when atoms come together to form a stable bond.
Recognize that bond breaking is an endothermic process, meaning energy must be absorbed to overcome the bond and separate the atoms.
Compare the given statements with these principles: energy released during bond formation and energy absorbed during bond breaking.
Conclude that the correct description is: Energy is released when bonds are formed and absorbed when bonds are broken.
