I have the Oxford A-level Year 2 book.
It says
Electrons are raised to higher energy levels / or excited in two ways :
- High energy electrons are released when chemical bonds are broken in respiratory substrates (e.g. glucose)
This doesn't make chemical sense. You can't release electrons by breaking down compounds.
Can someone explain this?
