Question

Consider the positions of electrons in the food you eat versus the positions of the same electrons in the waste products of food processing. Specifically, think about electron positions in the bonds found in 1) the sugars, fats, and oxygen you take in (C-C and C-H and O=O bonds) versus 2) the carbon dioxide and water that are released after food is processed in your cells (C=O and H-O bonds).

Step 1

In sugars and fats, the primary bonds are carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds. These bonds store energy due to the arrangement of electrons around the carbon atoms. Show more…
