Bond release energy when they form; they represent a (preferred) state of low energy—indeed, that’s why they form. Adding energy tends to break them.

Aug 3, 2022 at 17:28 comment added Chemomechanics Your first statement (“When we supply heat, molecules move away from each other.”) isn’t always true; it holds only for materials that (1) expand with heating and are (2) allowed to expand. Can you clarify whether you’re asking about a temperature increase or a phase change such as boiling? Both can occur from heating, and the associated details are very different.
