What Is High Energy Bonds?

What Is High Energy Bonds? A chemical bond whose hydrolysis results in the generation of 30kJ (7kcal) of energy or, if coupled to an energetically unfavourable reaction, can drive that reaction forward. What is an example of a high energy bond? Energy-rich compounds in cells comprise five kinds of high-energy bonds: phosphoanhydride, acyl phosphate, enolphosphate,
