Origin of Life
• Atoms make up molecules C, H, O, N, P combine and may form CH4, H2O, NH3, H2, PO4
3-
• Molecules form monomers CH4, H20, NH3 may combine and form amino acids
• Monomers combine to form polymersAmino acids form proteins
2
Definitions
• ___________: a single unit molecule that may chemically bind to other molecules
Ex. ___________________: building blocks of protein
• ___________: a chain of repeated monomers
Ex. _____________: a large molecule formed by linked monomers called amino acids
3
Enzymes: special type of protein
• __________: a type of ________ that speeds up chemical _________ in living organisms without being _________ or destroyed.
• Chemical reactions are synonymous with metabolic reactions in biology.
• Are picky and only work on one molecule Example: catalase only works with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide)
4
CHEMICAL REACTIONSTransfer of Energy
Rearrangement of Atoms
5
Energy
Definitions:
• Ability to do work • Ability to move or change matter
Energy comes in ______ forms.
6
Forms of energy
• Light - sun
• Heat - shivering
• Mechanical - rub hands together
• Electrical - shock metal door knob
• Chemical - combustion
7
Chemical Reactions • Energy is transferred
• Atoms are rearranged
8
Energy is Transferred
First Law of Thermodynamics:
The total amount of energy in an isolated system is constant (not increasing or decreasing).
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed.
9
Rearrangement of Atoms
__________: starting materials
Product: newly formed substances
: changes into
A + B C + D
Ex. HCl + KOH KCl + H2O
10
Energy in Chemical Reactions
• Chemical bonds are formed and broken • Hydrogen Bonds, Ionic Bonds, Covalent Bonds
• Products can either _______ or _______ energy• Endothermic Reaction • Exothermic Reaction
• -gonic = suffix meaning energy
11
Chemical Bonds and Reactions
• Are strong bonds easier or harder to break compared to weak bonds? And do they require more or less energy?
• Therefore, weak bonds are _________ to break and require ________ energy to do so.
• Do spontaneous reactions break ‘more stable’ or ‘less stable’ bonds? Why?
12
RULE OF THUMBThe more strong bonds a molecule has, the more stable it is; consequently, more energy is needed to break down the molecule.

Endergonic Reaction
• Energy is absorbed
• Unfavorable or _________________
• Products are less stable than reactants
Ex 1. Photosynthesis 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2
Ex 2. burning paper

Exergonic Reaction
• Energy is released
• Favorable or spontaneous
• Products more stable
Ex. Respiration C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O
19
Enzymes and Metabolic ReactionsEndergonic Reaction
• Energy is _________• Products have ______
energy than reactants
Exergonic Reaction
• Energy is __________• Products have ______
energy than reactants
20
Starting Chemical Reactions
•How do endergonic and exergonic reactions begin?
21
Activation Energy
• Activation energy (EA): the energy needed to ________ a reaction
• Do spontaneous reactions require EA?
• Do non-spontaneous
reactions require EA?
22
Enzyme and EA (Activation Energy)
23
Role of Enzyme
24
Enzymes• protein that speeds up metabolic reactions
• Catalysts: _______ the activation energy needed to start a chemical reaction
How do enzymes speed up chemical reactions?
25
Importance of Enzymes
• Allow organisms to maintain homeostasis
• Without enzymes, reactions would occur too slowly for life to exist
• Enzymes lower the activation energy needed for chemical reactions to occur = quicker reactions
26
Enzyme Specificity
• Specificity- specific, particular, precise
• Enzymes only work with certain _____________ or reactants.
• ____________: substance or molecule which an enzyme acts on
Starch glucose
H2O2 2H2O + O2
Amylase
Catalase
27
How are enzymes specific?

What effects the performance of enzymes?
• Two things. Discuss with your table partner for a few moments.
