What causes chemical bonds to break during a reaction?

1 answer:

4 0

Chemical bonds are broken by the energy that is released during the chemical reaction. This energy is created by the movement of electrons from one molecule to another as they attempt to achieve a chemical balance. The breaking of chemical bonds can easily be identified because they are often accompanied by physical changes as the original elements used in the chemical reaction take on new forms or become new elements.

Protein breakdown into amino acids is the statement that correctly explains the complex molecule.

Option (c);

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Cells in our body carry put several chemical reactions which in turn keep us healthy. All these reactions are collectively called metabolism. With the breakdown of complex molecules, it releases a lot of energy into the body.Through this process, Proteins are broken down into amino acids.

Various enzymes, specifically pepsin and hydrochloric acid breaks proteins into individual amino acids. They on further broken into a-keto acids. These amino acids reduces body weight and improves energy in the human body.
