Document Summary

Occur anytime two or more atoms, ions, or molecules collide in such a way that they produce a new substance. Laws of thermodynamics: first law: energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form to another, second law: when converting energy from one form to another the amount of useful energy decreases. Types of chemical reactions: spontaneous: can occur without outside help (energy, doesn"t mean quick (rust, non-spontaneous: can occur only with outside help (energy) Energy that is free and available to do useful work in the cell. The amount of energy when/for reaction/processes occur: types (spontaneous, from higher to lower, gravitational energy, diffusion, chemical reaction. Free energy and chemical reactions: spontaneous: release free energy (exergonic, non-spontaneous: require free energy (endergonic); reactants have less energy than products. G= h-t( s: g=free energy, h=enthalpy (heat energy, t=temperature (k, s=entropy (measure of disorder) If entropy increases, free energy decreases (all others remain constant)
