What are proteins that speed up chemical reactions in organisms called?
We call these enzymes but there are ones in chemical reactions which do the same but are called catalysts.
How does enzymes speed up chemical reactions?
The way enzymes speed up chemical/biochemical reactions is the same way that catalysts work. They provide an alternate pathway for the reaction which has a LOWER activation energy. They don't actually decrease the activation energy of the pathway in question, but rather they provide a different pathway that has a lower energy of activation.
Is Enzyme have same function called as?
Enzymes have the same function as catalysts. Except, the mode of action is markedly different.
Are enzymes permanently changed in the chemical reactions they aer involved in?
No, enzymes are not permanently changed in the chemical reactions they are involved in. Enzymes are catalysts that facilitate chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy, and they remain unchanged after the reaction takes place. They can be used repeatedly in multiple reactions.
Do chemical reactions contain the same number of moles as reaction proceeds?
Not necessarily. Some reactions do have the same number of moles, and some do not.Examples: NaCl + AgNO3 ==> NaNO3 + AgCl same # of moles N2 + 3H2 ==> 2NH3 different # of moles

Why don't all reactions produce the same amount of products?
all reactions are different. therefore, different amounts of products are produced.
Can ions that come from the same chemical compound have different chemical reactions?
Yes. It is possible when the charge on the ions are different. For example the reactions will be different for Fe2+ and Fe3+

How are exothermic and exothermic reaction are different and how are they the same?
Endothermic and exothermic reactions are similar in that both have reactants and products. They are different in that exothermic reactions release energy through reacting and endothermic reactions absorb it.
What are the important classes of catalysts including both the inorganic and biological catalysts?
Catalysts are generally divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous ones. Homogeneous catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants, for instance a mineral acid is added to an aqueous solution of an ester to speed up hydrolysis. Heterogeneous catalysts are in a different phase to the reactants, for instance exhaust gases from a car engine pass over the heated metals of the catalytic converter to speed up their conversion to safer gases. Natural catalysts are called enzymes and are homogeneous.
What are Enzymes that catalyze the same reactions in different tissues and have slightly different structures called?
isoenzymes
Can two people faced with the same dilemma have different gut reactions?
yep, fight or flight.
What are the examples of heterogeneous and homogeneous?
catalysts which are in the same phase to that of reactants and products
How dos the same type of rock produce different soils in two different climates?
Chemical and physical reactions breaking down the rock are different.
