Thermal energy, especially solar heat, is converted into chemical energy by being used for the endothermic dissociation of a compound which is exothermically recombinable to release at least a substantial part of that energy at a time and/or location at which the original heat source is not ...
ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate is the main energy source for the majority of cellular functions. They are used up by energy-requiring processes (endothermic) and are produced by energy-releasing processes (exothermic) of the cells. ATPis also termed as the energy currency of life. Additional ...
An exothermic (exoergic) nuclear reaction is areaction that releases energywhile an endothermic (or endoergic) reaction is one that requires an input of energy to take place. ... If the reaction energy is positive, the reaction is exothermic but if the reaction energy is negative, the reacti...
Why is photosynthesis an endothermic reaction? What is the role of energy in chemical reactions? Why does an enzyme function as a catalyst in a reaction? What is another name for the activation energy barrier in a reaction? What occurs whe...
An exothermic reaction isa reaction in which energy is released in the form of light or heat. Thus in an exothermic reaction, energy is transferred into the surroundings rather than taking energy from the surroundings as in an endothermic reaction. In an exothermic reaction, change in enthalpy (...
To determine which of the following processes is energy dependent, we will analyze each option provided: Facilitated Diffusion, Active Transport, Endosmosis, and Exosmosis.1. Understanding Facilitated Diffusion: - Facilitate
If the bond is broken by adding energy, such as heat or light, it is an endothermic process. If the bond is broken by releasing energy, it is an exothermic process. Is the chemical bond in sugar potential energy? Yes, the chemical bond in sugar repres...
Calculate the internal energy (in joules) of an endothermic system that absorbs 457.08 J and expands from 1.0 to 5.22 L against a pressure of 1.54 atm. If 244 KJ heat is released and 35 KJ work done on the system....
To start, recall that DeltaH is the change in enthalpy (energy) of a thermodynamic system from reactants to products, with exothermic reactions (releasing heat) having a negative DeltaH and endothermic reactions (absorbing heat) having a positive...
These endothermic fishes possess thermogenic organs, which have evolved from skeletal muscle and warm the brain and eyes up to 20 °C above ambient water temperature7. In contrast, poikilothermic invertebrates cannot raise and sustain their body temperature significantly above the ambient temperature ...
