Chemical Reactions and Equations
2
Do Now Browning of an apple:
chemical reaction – enzymes speed reaction 1. What are enzymes? 2. Which factors will affect the browning process and why? a. lemon juice b. boiling water c. sugar solution
3
Do Now Why is my fruit rusting? (turning brown) Iron containing
compounds + oxygen ---tyrosinase--> Fruit rust
4
Chemical Reactions Chemical bonds are broken and reformed creating new substances Cellular respiration: glucose and O2 reacting to form energy, CO2 and H2O C6H12O6 + O > CO2 + H2O + energy An iron chain rusting Fe O > Fe2O3 Reactants > Products
5
Balanced Equations Law of Conservation of Mass : matter cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes forms Number of atoms of each element on reactant side must equal the number of atoms on product side Coefficients: Numbers in front of formula; represent number of molecules of substance
6
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
Balanced Equations 4 Fe O > Fe2O3 C6H12O6 + 6O > 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy Coefficients in red
7
Balanced Equations Try This: CH4 + O2 -----> CO2 + H2O
8
Balance this: H2O > H2O O2 2H2O > 2H2O O2
9
Energy of Reactions Activation Energy: amount of energy necessary to start a chemical reaction In every chemical reaction there is a change in energy due to the breaking and making of bonds.
10
Exothermic Reaction
11
Exothermic Reaction Releases energy- usually in the form of heat
Reactants have more energy than products (products more stable) Reaction more likely to go forward
12
Exothermic Reaction Activation Energy Amount of Energy released
Products Reactants
13
Endothermic Reaction
14
Endothermic Reaction Absorbs energy
Reactants have less energy than products (reactants more stable) Reaction less likely to go forward
15
Enzymes Reactions in living organism occur too slowly Need to speed up
On the energy diagram what will enzymes affect? Activation Energy
16
Energy Diagram with Enzyme
17
Do Now Browning of an apple:
1. Enzymes are proteins in living organisms that speed up reactions 2. a. lemon juice –pH decreased b. boiling water – temp. increased c. sugar solution –solute concentration increased
