What happens to chemical bonds during chemical reactions?

How do energy changes affect whether a chemical reaction will occur?

Why are enzymes important to living things?

Living things are made up of chemical compounds

Everything that happens to an organism is based on chemical reactions

A process that changes or transforms one set of chemicals into another

Elements or compounds that enter into a reaction

Elements or compounds produced by a chemical reaction

In the blood

In the lungs

CO2 + H20 H2CO3 (carbonic acid)

H2CO3 CO2 + H2O

Released as you breathe

Reactants

The energy that is needed to get a reaction started

Some chemical reactions are too slow or have activation energies that are too high to make them practical for living tissue

These chemical reactions are made possible by catalysts

Substance that speeds up the rate of chemical reactions

Work by lowering a reactions activation energy

Are known as Biological catalysts

Speed up reactions in cellsVery specific name for the reaction is catylzes

Enzyme names always end in -ase

Enzymes are affected by any variable that affects chemical reactions

1. pH2. Temperature3. Concentration

of enzyme

1. What happens to chemical bonds during chemical reactionsBonds are broken in reactants and new bonds are formed in products

2. Describe the role of energy in chemical reactionssome chemical reactions release energy, and other chemical reactions absorb energy. Energy changes determine how easily a chemical reaction will occur

3. What are enzymes, and how are they important to living things?Enzymes are biological catylasts. Cells use enzymes to speed up virtually every important chemical reaction that takes place in cells

4. Describe how enzymes work, including the role of the enzyme substrate complexSubstrates, the reactants of an enzyme-catylzed reaction, attach to the enzyme at an active site and form an enzyme – substrate complex. Once the complex is formed, the enzyme helps convert substrate into product

5. A change in pH can change the protein. How might a change in pH affect the function of an enzyme such as hexokinase (hint: think about the analogy of the lock and key)A change in pH could change the shape of hexokinase. This change would diminish the ability of glucose and ATP to bind to the active site of the enzyme.

1. Temperature (high and low)2. pH (generally low)3. enzyme concentration

Enzyme is denatured, which means that it changes shape such that it can no longer bind to the substrate

More enzyme available (higher enzyme concentration = reaction happens faster) more product made

Low pH tends to break hydrogen bonds, changing the shape of the enzyme (denatured) so that it can no longer bind to the substrate
