amino acids
what type of carb is glucose
monosaccarhide
examples of polysaccharides
cellulose and glycogen
monosac
composed of a single molecule or subunit
disaccharides
composed of two monosaccharides linked together
polysaccharides
composed of 3 or more monosaccharides linked together.
laws of thermodynamics
Energy is neither created nor destroyed
When energy is converted from one form to another, some of that energy becomes unavailable to do work
enthalphy
heat content
change in enthalpy
triangle (lol) then H
ΔH
free energy change equation
ΔG = (energy of the products) – (energy of the reactants)
exergonic
Reactions in which the total free energy of the product(s) is less than the total free energy of the reactant(s)
free energy change calc in exergonic
ΔG = (energy of the products) – (energy of the reactants)
is negative
can exergonic occur spontaneously
YES
CAN ENERGONCI OCCUR SPONTANEOUSLY
NO
