Whose are those books on table?

To whom is the food to bring?

"whose" is mostly used for people,"whom" is not often used in spoken english, it can be replaced by "who" or "that".In addition, you can use "whom" with prepositions: to whom - with whom - from whom
eg; An orphan is a child whose parents are dead.
The man whom I wanted to talk with is not here.

I agree about the first. The second sentence does not seem to make sense unless the word order is changed : "Who is to bring the food?"

But if we say for example: there's a food to bring, it's for who? or to who?
then we can ask; for whom is the food to bring?
OR
To whom is the food to bring?
tell me, is the explanation I put right?
