What else can I help you with?
What is the energy of a flaming candle?
the energy in flame of a candle is thermal energy.
What A is made of?
Chemical compounds with energy locked in their chemical bonds and where this energy is easily released bu the action of oxidation.
What are some ways individual cells in an organism use energy?
chemical energy, mechanical energy, and electrical energy
Oxidizing food for energy-physical change?
When food is oxidized for energy in the body, it undergoes a chemical change rather than a physical change. Oxidation involves the breaking down of molecules to release energy, which is a fundamental process in our metabolism. This process transforms the chemical energy stored in food molecules into a form that the body can use for various biological functions.
What is a fuel made of?
Chemical compounds with energy locked in their chemical bonds and where this energy is easily released bu the action of oxidation.
What is the voltage difference in battery caused by?
Chemical energy is converted into Electrical Energy. Cause: Oxidation , ions
The process that releases chemical energy for use by the cell is called?
The process is called cellular respiration. It involves breaking down glucose molecules to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy currency of the cell.
What is difference in energy produced in biological oxidation and chemical oxidation of glucose?
Glucose getconvertedto carbon bi oxide and water molecule, during oxidation in both the biological oxidation and chemical oxidation. One glucose molecule gives 6 carbon bi oxide and 6 water molecules.(C6H12O6 + 6 O2 = 6 CO2 + H2O.) In biological oxidation glucose is broken down in step wise manner. In about 22 steps, energy is released. So cell does not get burned due to sudden release of energy. So this is like, you come down from the two story building via staircase, step by step. So you do notinjure yourself. In chemical oxidation glucose burn in one step only. So it is like jumping from the two story building. You will get injured. In biological oxidation, you get the intermediate products of low energy. (At few times high energy.) As ultimate products of both biological oxidation and chemical oxidation are same, the energy released is same. Not a photon more or less, provided temperature of glucose and temperature and pressure of end products is same. In biological oxidation, you get some energy stored in body in the form of ATP molecules. Which is utilized for various metabolic processes, required by cell. Rest is released in the form of heat. That is also useful to maintain body temperature. This is in accordance to the Law ofconservationof energy in chemical reactions. It remains constant and can change the form of energy.
What kind of energy is used in burning a match?
When you light a match, chemical energy is transformed to thermal energy, primarily by oxidation. When you actually strike it, the triggering energy is mechanical energy that creates heat through friction to begin the oxidation process (combustion).
Is Oxidation exergonic or endergonic?
Oxidation is generally considered an exergonic process, meaning it releases energy. During oxidation, electrons are removed from a substance, often resulting in the release of energy in the form of heat or light. This energy release occurs because the products of the oxidation reaction typically have lower free energy than the reactants. Therefore, oxidation is often associated with energy-yielding reactions in biological and chemical systems.
Which best describes a chemical oxidation?
A chemical oxidation involves the loss of electrons by a substance, resulting in an increase in its oxidation state. This process typically involves the reaction of a substance with oxygen or another oxidizing agent. It often leads to the formation of new chemical bonds and the release of energy.
Where does the energy come from that drives cell metabolism?
Plants and some algae get their energy from the Sun. Most other living beings (including us humans) get their energy from plants. Energy is stored as chemical energy, which we use. Plants use chemical energy, too, as energy storage.Plants and some algae get their energy from the Sun. Most other living beings (including us humans) get their energy from plants.
