The energy used in the electron transport change pumps protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane from the inner matrix to the intermembrane space, producing a strong hydrogen concentration gradient.
Oxygen. In the electron transport chain, oxidative phosphorylation occurs over a series of steps in the intermembrane space of the mitochondrion. As the NAD and FAD molecules give up the hydrogen atoms, the hydrogen atoms get split into electrons and protons. Flow of electrons through electron carriers from a higher energy level to lower energy level produces energy, some of which is used to drive the protons out of the matrix into the intermembrane space.
