Glucose is a molecule that is a source of energy in the body as it is broken down during cellular respiration. It can also be stored in the body as glycogen for later use. Glucose can easily mix with water due to its hydrophilic properties.
One molecule that fits this description is glucose. Glucose is a source of energy as it can be broken down during cellular respiration to release energy, it can be stored in the body as glycogen for later use, and it can mix with water to form a solution due to its hydrophilic nature.
Water, like any other molecule stores energy in bonds. Water is made of 2 carbon to hydrogen bonds, which require energy to break but will release energy if they reform in a manner requiring less energy or strain.
water can store heat energy from light energy..
No. Water is essential in the process of metabolizing nutrients to produce energy, but water does not provide any energy, itself. Another way of looking at it is this: energy is obtained by breaking down molecules in reactions which release energy. Water molecules cannot release energy when they are broken down--on the contrary, breaking a water molecule consumes a significant amount of energy.
no it cannot
Glucose has more potential energy than water because it is a complex molecule with multiple chemical bonds that can be broken to release energy. Water, on the other hand, is a simple molecule with stable bonds that do not contain much potential energy. The energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose can be released through processes like cellular respiration to fuel biological reactions.
A hydrophobic compound that simultaneously stores energy would be a hydrocarbon. There are several types of hydrocarbons, but oil is distinct in being unmixable with water.
You cannot store power any more than you can store velocity, because it is simply a 'rate' -the rate of doing work. In order to do work you can store potential energy in, for example, the form of water held behind a dam. When the water is allowed to pass through a turbine, that turbine does work by converting this energy into electrical energy.
During photosynthesis, organisms use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a high energy molecule. This glucose is then used by the organism for energy production, growth, and maintenance of cellular processes. Essentially, photosynthesis allows organisms to harness and store energy from sunlight in the form of glucose.
One example of a chemical compound that cannot mix with water and is used to store energy is gasoline. Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons that is used as a fuel in internal combustion engines to produce energy. Due to its non-polar nature, it does not mix well with water which is a polar solvent.
