Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand that energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds is related to the position or arrangement of atoms and electrons within the molecule.
Recall that kinetic energy is the energy of motion, so it does not describe stored energy in bonds.
Recognize that radiant energy refers to energy carried by electromagnetic waves, such as light, which is not the energy stored in chemical bonds.
Thermal energy is related to the random motion of particles and heat, not the stored energy in bonds.
Therefore, the energy stored in chemical bonds is best described as potential energy, which is energy due to position or configuration.
