Question

The energy stored in molecular bonds is called _____.

Answer 1

Correct answer is chemical energy.

Reason:

For the chemical reactions to occur, energy is to be supplied for breaking and reorganization of bonds. This energy can be in form of heat, light, etc. Since, breaking of bonds results in chemical reactions to occur, the energy stored in molecular bonds is called Chemical energy.

Answer 2

The energy stored in molecular bonds is called chemical energy. This energy will produce heat also and this is why molecular bonds uses this chemical energy to support for the process and the structure of the element in order to maintain its stability.
