What is released when a chemical bond is broken between the second and third phosphate of an ATP molecule?

It isn't. AMP (adenosine monophosphate) remains intact but has no chemical energy to give and it is not broken off. It must be reenergized in the portion of cellular respiration called oxidative phosphorylation, where it goes to ADP (a-diphosphate) and finally to ATP (a-triphosphate), which is as high as the molecule can go and remain stable.
