Chapter 22 Flashcards
Name the 4 pieces of evidence of chemical reactions
Temperature changes, PH level changes, light is given off, fizzing starts
What is an exothermic reaction
It is where heat energy is lost to the environment. Eg burning fuel
What is an endothermic reaction
It involves heat energy being absorbed from the environment.eg cold packs
What is bond breaking
Bond breaking is endothermic
What is bond forming
Bond forming is exothermic and energy is released
What do energy profile diagrams do
They show how energy is transferred during reactions
What is an example of a biochemical reaction
Photosynthesis is an example of a biochemical reaction where light energy (not heat energy is transferred. Light is converted to chemical energy in the form of glucose
