| electron affinity |
the energy released when a single electron is combined with an isolated atom; its value is determined by the effective charge on the nucleus and the size and electronic configuration of the atom.

|
| electron transport chain |
the series of electron carriers in the inner mitochondrial membrane that pass electrons from reduced coenzymes (NADH, FADH 2 ) to molecular oxygen via sequential redox reactions coupled to vectorial transduction of protons across the membrane. The chain is the final common pathway of biological oxidation, using O 2 for fuel combustion; the energy produced is utilized for ATP synthesis, ion translocation, and protein synthesis. See illustration. See also oxidative phosphorylation. ...
