How DO Molecules Store Energy?

  • Chemistry text books say molecules like glucose store energy in bonds. Are they wrong? What even is chemical energy anyway? And what ARE chemical bonds? And are they JUST abstract concepts? Are Derek Muller from @veritasium and Nick Lucid from @scienceasylum correct when they say bonds don’t store energy? We look at the science and chemistry of molecular energy and answer the question: Where do molecules store their energy?

      ​​@@xxCeCexx14I am not working yet, in my country opportunities are very limited. I will be starting my masters in September and then I will leave abroad. If you are just trying to do the bare minimum and just pass the courses with low grades, you are not going to face severe difficulties. If you are trying to get good grades though, just like I did, good luck with that. It is going to be really difficult. Labs sometimes are graded based on your yield (in synthetic labs) or your error (in analytical labs). This makes it almost impossible to get good or perfect grades consistently.
      In subjects such as biochemistry we needed to know the whole metabolism by heart. They would ask us for example in the finals, if an aminoacid would be radioactive after giving radioactive CO2 to a plant and to name the radioactive carbon of said aminoacid. Madness.
      My program was 4 years in duration. During the final year I had to do lab work everyday for my thesis. Since I chose OChem it would usually take me 5-7 hours of lab work daily, without accounting for the courses that I had each day. I would go to the uni for at least 6-8 hours each day, some times even 10+, for the whole last year. It burnt me out.

    *Well done young man!* Carbon dioxide is actually able to release energy if you react it with magnesium metal after ignition. 2Mg + CO2 --> 2MgO + C The loosely held electrons in Mg end up back in the carbon atom or rather between carbon atoms. *The energy is stored in the potential for this rearrangement.* MgO is quite stable and it would of course take lots more energy to move the electrons from O= back to the Mg++. *Mg++ and O= are held tightly by ionic bonding* in a lattice.

    • @tabunes2097
      @tabunes2097 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      It basically boils down to (1) the difference in electonegativity (EN) between atoms and (2) how many electrons are "shared" between the atoms. Since oxygen has the 2nd highest EN, it always favors those atoms with the lowest EN since these atoms beg to give their valence electrons away.
      In case of your example above, in CO2 one O-atom "shares" 2 electrons with the C-atom as it is the same within MgO. But since Mg has an EN of 1.2 and C "only" 2.5, Mg can easily reduce CO2 to C by stripping away the 2 O-atoms. While CO2 is held together by polar covalent bonds, MgO is already an ionic bond which is much stronger than the covalent bond.

    To be honest, I think the part at 17:45 - that students end up so confused by the "paradox" of why carbon dioxide and water release energy as they form their bonds, rather than absorbing it - summarizes why "energy is stored in bonds" is such a misleading shorthand. (And don't get me started about similar energy misconceptions when you don't realize kinetic energy is relative to frame of reference in physics!)
    But I appreciate the video - even if peoples' confusions are ultimately more about semantics, each non-contradictory viewpoint on the same thing should improve understanding.

    Just a small correction for 14:25 - the box, when it hits the floor, hasn't lost all of its gravitational potential energy, it's only the amount it gained from when it was originally lifted from the floor - it still has all the gravitational potential energy to fall through to the centre of the earth if only the floor wasn't in the way.

  • @MichaelRodgers-q5v
    @MichaelRodgers-q5v หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    The question of how much energy is stored is only defined relative to some lower floor. With gravity, it is answered by how much the object hasn’t fallen, but still can. It’s stored in its relationship to the floor,not the chair in isolation. So in chemistry, would the stored energy be in the bonds the atoms have not yet made, but could?

Is it radiated, or converted into heat, or vibrations, etc or does something else happen?

    So - I’m working on an important theory, and I think it reveals a lot about our understanding on the fundamental nature of energy.
    Like you said and correct me if I’m wrong - the potential energy is from the movement of electrons and the magnetic fields generated in quantum mechanics. Doesn’t that suggest we should move away from our ancient thermodynamic roots and into a new age of energy definition related to the discoveries of electrochemistry?
    “Heat” no longer applies, and I argue this perspective has insisted that our bodies move directly from the heat energy of the bond breaking - but what if that “heat” is just a side effect of nature.
    Muscles can’t move without the catalyst ATPace, and the hydrolysis of ATP happens in the catalyst and away from the power stroke - but what if the catalyst was there to rearrange the ADP and P and connect them to specific regions of the myosin, creating the proper electronegative environment to turn the molecular gears and levers from same electromagnetic potential that you said energy came from to begin with.
    I think it’s the only thing that makes sense, and why calories aren’t a reliable scientific model or theory - because they aren’t proven or actual reality, they are just a metaphor of the fire element that breathes life into life (ancient explanations)

    Nice video. Just wanted to add that every molecule has associated electron energy - this consists of all the the energy of core electrons and valence electrons. In chemical reactions the inner electrons dont change their energy state (or negligibly compared to valence electrons), so one can assume that only the valence electron potential energy plays a role. Now, we can see the total electronic energy as a whole but for us chemists its easier to see it as separate bonds between atoms - there is a mathematical way of converting MO into localized 2-centre bonds which gives same results. What changes during reaction are actually these bonds - they get redistributed, and we all know some bonds have “more energy” than others so if the newly formed bonds (electronic energy of valence electrons) is lower, so excess energy gets released. Now comes the question why are different bonds different in energy - its because in different nuclei rearrangements these electronsare in more stable state than other cases (C=O bond is stronger than O=O bond for example). So if some of this potenital energy is “lost” it is given in the surroundings in the form of work/heat etc. So if You have a molecule with a lot of high energy bonds, if properly triggered, these bonds rearrange in other bonds and excees energy is given off. So in some sense, this energy is stored in the bonds (or valence electrons).

    I was wondering for a long time why most elements release energy when a neutral atom gains an *extra* electron (a property called "electron affinity"). How can a neutral atom capture extra electron and keep it? Aren't charges supposed to equilibrate? So I dug down and learned that my simplistic imagination of atoms does not iclude the effect of polarization. I tried hard to imagine how could that work to the point of having it in my dreams - I like the lights up moment when it finally clicks. I was stuck on the idea of electrons orbiting nucleus fixed in space while in reality neither are fixed - even though the nucleus is so much heavier than its electron cloud, it's positive charge can be more or less displaced from the "center" - then I finally grabbed the concept of "dielectric constant" and lot of things started making much more sense...
    Similarly, I though that electrons are spin-paired as if there was some kind of bond between them - but that's not case! I learned there is even something called "spin pairing energy" and indeed it may take a non-trivial energy to add a second electron to an s-orbital because one have to "flip" its spin in order to coexist in the same orbital (Wolfgang Pauli nodding...).
    Here is one idea on video: Could you shine a light on bonding in the oxygen molecule? It is the prototypical molecule for explaining the molecular orbital theory and I was reading and re-reading the explanation of why oxygen is a diradical even in ground state (!) but didn't understood how it works (self-learning chemistry is sometimes tough and I get stuck on some topic -- I must say that AI models are a godsend because who has a personal mentor with PhD in chemistry...).

    Except you're missing the point. Glossing over your criminally incorrect "AI suggestions" as for energy in a mole of glucose (it takes 5 moles or ~3000 kcal of glucose to run a marathon), Derek's point was that energy released from the "breaking of bonds" is actually not a valid way of looking at bonds nor bond energy. In fact, a better way of looking at it is, it always always takes energy to break a bond, and forming a bond always always releases energy. In the case of ATP, for example (which is how us animals store our energy), it takes energy to break its weak bonds, which are then reformed into strong bonds. This reforming releases more energy than it took to break the bonds. You can think of bonds, thus, as potential energy wells. The stronger the bond, the deeper the potential energy well, therefore the more energy it would take to separate the atoms again. Thank you for coming to my TED talk, and please think for yourselves folks. Also trust Derek Muller because he is smart and has a PhD in Physics. Thanks have a great day, bye.

    So the formation of molecules and their bonds from atoms both sheds and stores energy, and entropy leads to the formation of molecules rather than the separation of atoms. Couldn't say I had really grasped that before. I'm assuming this high-energy, purely atomic scenario at the beginning of Veritasium's argument is like a one-time deal that only exists in stars or immediately after a supernova, and that planets and everything on them exist entirely within a molecular framework - do I have this right?

    When you break a thing, the bonds of some molecules are broken. It may be covalent bonds. You are unable to reverse the process and join them. Bonds are not created again. But, why? Energy required is large amount?

    Energy is stored all over the atom or molecule. By definition a chemical reaction involves the breaking or forming of a chemical bond. So when you do chemistry on a compound and energy is released or absorbed , that energy came from the change in configuration(3d shape of the chemical species) , and that physical change in shape came mostly from the areas associated with the bonds. There is also energy exchange from configuration changes on a single molecule or atom that has been exited by radiation. So most of the energy on the atoms or molecules is stored on its electronic configuration. It is when you change the configuration of the electronic clouds that most of the chemistry happens. ls it also very important to understand the concept of "work'. Work is usable energy. Usable energy is what we can actually measure or use.

    I think the simplest way to explain "where is the energy?" is that energy is the potential to do stuff, and that potential is necessarily relative. The energy of molecules is their capacity to rearrange their atoms into arrangements that have less energy -- less potential to rearrange themselves -- and in doing so, they "release" energy. But that energy, of course, doesn't just disappear: it is transferred into something *else*, which then *gains* the potential to do stuff. That potential can then go on to be transferred further and further, often being converted into "heat," i.e. the movement of other molecules, or it's radiated away, or disperses in other ways, at which point we like to say the energy has been "lost." But it's not lost -- that energy is just not in a form useful to *us*.

    Hi Andrew, I have read and studied a whole bunch of books talking about hilbert, schrodinger, and quantum physics, and that is all fine... but I have not seen a real object in any of those books. It's like studying planet motion and just looking at the equations, having no idea about the real orbits. So my question is, Where can I find videos or experimental data where I can see that the solution of the schrodinger equation is actually describing what I see in the data? Like if I superpose the calculation over the data, I see both are the same. I don't talk about isolated ideal atoms, I am interested in the simplest possible chemical reactions. Any hints about that?

      Measurement of anything is inherently abstract, as there are still holes in our understanding of physics, particularly in smaller reference frames, due to the lack of a grand unifying theory between relativity and quantum mechanics. However, we can measure mass fairly reliably, and while mass *refers* to a clearly real thing, it may very well also be an emergent phenomena caused by something we don't understand yet, similar to gravity. All of our attempts to quantify properties of the universe are, while reliable, observations from an outsider's view.

      Energy is quite difficult to define. I read a discussion among physicists and they basically landed on “energy is a bookkeeping method to describe a conserved and abstract state of a system”

    • @solconcordia4315
      @solconcordia4315 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The concept of energy helps us organize our empirical experiences in an ordered hierarchy so it somewhat "explains" why certain events can happen but others cannot (insufficient energy precludes a hypothetical event from happening).

The reaction mechanisms taught in organic chemistry might not be even true, maybe in reality something much different occurs but we try to explain these as best as we can.

    Yes: more please.
    Nice job with tough content. Thank you. I’ll consume as much of this as you care to produce. 👍
    I’ll jump topics now. (Forgive my lack of transitions…) I’m trying to grasp why we can’t reproduce and experiment with components on the scale of, say, 10 to 20 nanometers. I realize that’s a stupid question but I’d love the stupid answer if you get bored sometime. Obviously “it’s too small” is both accurate and too simple… I understand that we have a pretty good idea of how to model ATP synthase within photosynthesis. But I understand we have a long way to go to understand nitrogenase at the same level of detail…? (So I’m asking why we’re struggling so much…?)
    My ignorance comes in part from thinking that we can study subatomic particles in an accelerator, so why can’t we do molecules? This is not a fair comparison, of course. But still it’s frustrating to me that I can’t just open a book and get the answer. Am I just looking in the wrong books, or is there really a gap in our knowledge about how protein chains “hold” a molecule of phosphate in order to push it into the end of an ADP? To ask the same question another way, why can’t we build an ADP synthase unit in a lab, mount it in a lipid, and then feed it phosphate molecules to assemble? What do we need to invent?
    Interestingly, right after I posted this note, TH-cam gave me a video that referred to the cloud chamber everybody was using in the 1910s and 1920s to bombard everything with x rays! Okay, I knew about the cloud chamber but I am assuming that’s not good enough to use with whole molecules… Is that right? What kind of cloud chamber do we need?
    Also, the invention of the cloud chamber was good for a Nobel, but as I understand it, the tool was meant for studying weather phenomena, and it was an accident that it showed what it showed. I saw this in a James Burke BBC series called, “Connections.” What instrument do we need in order to “see” proteins in operation?
    Please tell me we have the tool and we’re not waiting for another accident on Ben Nevis?!

    Energy is a measure of something that either has, or can, happen.
    Energy isnt a 'thing' - it's a measure - of the changes in states of things relative to other describable quantities of states.

    12:58 With "we" he is referring to the system. The newly created molecules loose energy. The "outside world" gets that energy. It's important to keep that in mind, since we (as the outside world) would actually use the energy that this system "looses", so it's not necessarily "lost" for us.
