CHAPTER 15 Flashcards
this is Standard set of conditions used for comparisons of chemical reactions
Standard Free Energy Change
this is an indication of △G as negative
exergonic & spontaneous
this is an indication of △G as positive
endergonic & non-spontaneous
△G < 0
spontaneous
△G > 0
non - spontaneous
△G = 0
at equillibrium
What is the Gas Constant
8.31 J mol^-1 K^-1
Occurs without added energy and no continuous energy
spontaneous
this principle states that reaction will shift to: right - if removes reactant & left - if adds product
Le Chatelier’s principle
This energy can be created or destroyed & only converted from one form to another
Law of Conservation Energy
this is chemical energy, which can be converted to other forms of energy as needed
Storage
this is the Sum total of the chemical reactions of biomolecules in an organism & Biochemical basis of life processes
Metaboism
this is the Breakdown of larger molecules into smaller ones
Catabolism
has an Oxidative process that releases energy
Catabolism
this is the Synthesis of larger molecules from smaller ones
Anabolism
has a Reductive process that requires energy
Anabolism
