Does water or glucose have more potential energy

glucose

Explanation:

Electron in the third energy shell has more potential energy because of its relative distance from the nucleus. Glucose has more potential energy. Energy is stored in chemical bonds, and there are more bonds in C6H12O6 than in H2O.

The correct answer is glucose.

Explanation:

Potential energy is illustrated as the stored energy, mechanical energy, or energy resulting due to its position. Glucose exhibits more potential energy than water. The energy is stored in the chemical bonds in both the components, that is, water and glucose. However, glucose has more bonds in comparison to water. So, as there are few numbers of bonds in water it exhibits less potential energy in comparison to glucose.
