Chemical Reactions

Chemical Reactions

A chemical reaction is a process that changes one set of chemicals into another set of chemicals.

Chemical Reactions

Chemical reactions always involve changes in the chemical bonds that join atoms in compounds.

–Breaking bonds releases energy

–Forming bonds stores energy

Energy in Reactions

•In order to stay alive, organisms need to carry out reactions that require energy.

•Because matter and energy are conserved in chemical reactions, every organism must have a source of energy to carry out chemical reactions.

•Plants get their energy from the sun.

•Animals get their energy from eating plants or other animals.

Energy in Reactions

Activation Energy

●Chemical reactions that release energy do not always occur spontaneously.

●Chemists call the energy that is needed to get a reaction started the activation energy.

Energy in Reactions

Activation energy is a factor in whether the overall chemical reaction releases energy or absorbs energy.

Enzymes

Enzymes

●Some chemical reactions that make life possible 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 (biological catalysts are Enzymes).

How: Lower Activation energy

Result: Speed up rate of reaction

An enzyme can decrease the energy of activation which speeds up the how fast the products are produced

Lowering the activation energy has a dramatic effect on how quickly the reaction is completed.

Enzymes

Enzymes are very specific, generally catalyzing only one chemical reaction.

For this reason, part of an enzyme’s name is usually derived from the reaction it catalyzes.

• Ex: Amylase breaks down amylose ( as type of starch found in flour)

• Amylose (starch) lots of glucoseamylaseamylase

Enzyme Action

Enzyme Action

●For a chemical reaction to take place, the reactants must collide with enough energy so that existing bonds will be broken and new bonds will be formed.

●If reactants do not have enough energy, no reaction will take place.

Enzyme Action

The Enzyme-Substrate Complex

Enzymes provide a site where reactants can be brought together to react, reducing the energy needed for reaction.

The reactants of enzyme-catalyzed reactions are known as substrates.

Enzyme Action

The substrates glucose and ATP bind to the active site on the enzyme, hexokinase, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.

The fit is so precise that the active site and substrates are often compared to a lock and key.

Enzyme Action

The enzyme and substrates remain bound together until the reaction is done and the substrates are converted to products.

The products of the reaction are released and the enzyme is free to start the process again.

Enzyme Action

Regulation of Enzyme Activity

Enzymes can be affected by any variable that influences a chemical reaction.

●Many enzymes are affected by changes in temperature.

●Enzymes work best at certain pH values.

●Enzymes work best at certain ionic (salt) concentrations

Enzyme Action

Regulation of Enzyme Activity

Temperature is a measurement of the average amount of heat/ movement a group of molecules has

–Too Cold: molecules move too slow decrease reaction rate

●Ex: enzyme responsible for producing key tomato flavor molecule stops working below 55 deg. F

–Too Hot: weak bonds between amino acids of the enzyme break denatured enzyme!!!

Regulation of Enzyme Activity

pH measures how acidic or basic the environment is

Basic: pH greater than 7 -14 [Less H+]

neutral: pH 7 (pure water and most cells) [H+ = OH-]

Acidic: pH less than 7 [more H+]

Cells can regulate the activities of enzymes.

•Most cells contain proteins that help to turn key enzymes “on” and “off” at critical stages in the life of the cell.
