Potential energy is stored in the nucleus or in the chemical bonds
Potential energy
In the chemical bonds that like their bonds.
The nucleusAdenosine Triphosphate, often abbreviated ATP, is the molecule, created by cell respiration in the mitochondria of animal cells and photosynthesis in the chloroplasts of plants, in which energy is stored.
Type of hybridizationthe number of lone pairs and bond pairs
energy cant be stored in a broken molecule instead energy realeses when you break a molecule
in the bond between the atoms #SLIM#PICKINS
O=C=O
ATP is a molecule with 3 phosphorus groups. The 3rd phosphorus group has a high energy bond connecting it to the 1st 2. When energy is needed by the cell to do work this 3rd bond is broken.
ATP (made in your mitochondria) stores energy in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group attached to it. engery is stored in all bonds but this is the min one broken to use the energy in the cell
The energy that a cell can use to do work is the energy stored in the chemical bond between the second and third phosphate groups.
The energy in ATP is stored as potential energy in the triphosphate attached to the end. The molecule wants to remove one of the phosphates, when it does so, it releases large amounts of energy.

All molecules contain chemical energy in their chemical bonds. The molecule that stores chemical energy in living things is ATP, adenosine triphosphate. It is composed of one molecule of adenosine, and three phosphate molecules. When a cell needs energy, one of the phosphate molecules is released from the ATP. When that bond is broken, the chemical energy that was stored in the bond is used by the cell to do work.
Potential energy is stored in the nucleus or in the chemical bonds
Energy is stored in the potential energy of the electrons that make up that bond. This energy is released once the bond is broken.
An ATP molecule is made of ribose, adenosine, and phosphate. The energy is stored within the bonds of the phosphate molecules.
