The potential energy of a chemical bond formed between two atoms is inversely proportional to the strength of the bond The weak bonds which are easily breakable have the highest potential energy and vice versa In terms of energy density the energy stored in a unit mass of biomolecule depends on the strength of the chemical bonds between the atoms in the molecule Fats have higher energy density due to the presence of long alkyl    See Answer
