Q

Chemical structure types of classifications _(3)

A

1)decomposition (Large molecule broken down into smaller structure…They are catabolic(means they break things down…e.g., hydrolysis

2)Synthesis reaction(take small subunits(monomers) and build a bigger structure (e.g., dehydration synthesis forming a dipeptide)…. these are anabolic and synthesis reactions)

3)Exchange reactions(groups exchanged between two chemical structures(one entity to another)

Q

Classifications of chemical energy _(2) reactions

A

1) exergonic reactions(reactants with more energy…energy released with net decrease in potential energy)(e.g., decompostion(needs a lot less of a push)

2)Endergonic reactions(reactants with less energy within their chemical bons than products…energy supplied with a net increase in potential energy)
