6CO H2O C6H12O6 + O2 How many TOTAL ATOMS of each element are present on the REACTANTS side of the reaction: Carbon: ___________ Oxygen: _____________ Hydrogen: ____________ 6 18 12
22
6CO H2O C6H12O6 + O2 How many TOTAL ATOMS of each element are present on the PRODUCTS side of the reaction: Carbon: ___________ Oxygen: _____________ Hydrogen: ____________ 6 18 12
23
CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + O2 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2
C. Conservation of matter: During a chemical reaction, atoms are not created or destroyed – just rearranged. Therefore, chemical equations must be balanced so there is the same number of atoms on both sides of the equation. chemical equation: CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + O2 balanced chemical equation 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2

II. Energy in Reactions:
Energy is absorbed or released whenever chemical bonds form or are broken.
27
Chemical reactions that Release energy….
Often Occur Spontaneously (without warning) Example: Explosion gun powder or fireworks EXOTHERMIC
28
Chemical reactions that Absorb energy….
Will not occur without a source of energy. Example: Instant Ice Packs or Photosynthesis. ENDOTHERMIC
29
The speed of a reaction depends on whether is absorbs or releases energy.

31
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
All reactions require some energy to start: activation energy.
32
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
All reactions require some energy to start: activation energy. catalyst: substance that speeds up a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy
33
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
All reactions require some energy to start: activation energy. catalyst: substance that speeds up a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy Catalysts found in living things are called enzymes Enzymes are made of Proteins
34
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
C. Enzymes provide a site where the reactants of a chemical reaction can be brought together
35
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
C. Enzymes provide a site where the reactants of a chemical reaction can be brought together are not used up or changed during the chemical reaction
36
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
active site: part of the enzyme where the reactants bind (stick)
37
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
active site: part of the enzyme where the reactants bind (stick) reactants: called substrate when they stick to the enzyme
38
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes
active site: part of the enzyme where the reactants bind (stick) reactants: called substrate when they are in a reaction with an enzyme substrate only fits into the active site of the correct enzyme (like a key and lock)

III. How does an enzyme work. C
III. How does an enzyme work? C. products are released – enzyme is free to bind new reactant Enzyme Product Active Site
44
A. temperature: destroys the shape of the enzyme (protein)
IV. Enzymes only work in specific conditions A. temperature: destroys the shape of the enzyme (protein) B. pH: changes the shape of the enzyme and its active site
45
Temperature or pH Change:
