endothermic reactions require energy
FalseAll chemical reactions require an initial input of energy called activation energy.
enzymes
These are not chemical reactions but thermonuclear reactions.
Heat energy is necessary for some chemical reactions to occur. Some chemical reactions are endothermic meaning they require or absorb energy for a chemical reaction to occur. Other chemical reaction are exothermic meaning they release energy when the chemical reaction takes place..
"Activation Energy reactions"; Endothermic reactions require energy.
Chemical reactions that release energy often occur spontaneously. Chemical reactions that absorb energy will not occur without energy.
Chemical energy
Generally, the energy required to initiate the reaction. Reactions that release energy (exothermic) can proceed faster than those that require energy to be added (usually in the form of heat energy).
The light dependent reactions take in the light energy and convert that to chemical energy, but it is in the Calvin cycle (light independent reactions) where the chemical energy is stored in a complex sugar.
no, chemical energy is the energy released from chemical reactions
chemical energy,Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic. Reactions that require an input of heat to proceed may store some of that energy as chemical energy in newly formed bonds. The chemical energy in food is converted by the body into mechanical energy and heat. The chemical energy in coal is converted into electrical energy at a power plant. The chemical energy in a battery can also supply electrical power by means of electrolysis.
Chemical bonds always break in chemical reactions, causing changes in energy.
