the arrow in a chemical reaction means ?
chemical reaction
A + C > D is an example of
combination reaction
C > A + B is an example of
decomposition reaction
L + MX > M + LX is an example of
single displacement reaction
LX + MY > LY + MX Is an example of
double displacement reaction
The two basic types of chemicals reactions are based whether or not
energy released or stored
What type of reaction store energy in chemical bonds
endergonic
what is an example of a chemical process that stores energy ?
photosynthesis
what type of reaction relates energy from chemical bonds?
exergonic
ATP doing cellular work is an example of
exorgonic
What biomolecule makes up all enzymes?
Protein
How are most enzymes named
Named for what they do “ase”.
What is a molecule that causes a chemical reaction occur but does not change in process
Catalyst
What part of an enzymes is the same shape as the substrate ?
active site
What do enzymes lower
activation energy
Many enzymes need to be activated before they can work properly T/F
T
What are two examples of enzymes that need to be activated before they can work?
blood clotting and digestion
Enzymes function best at
ideal conditions
