How does a carbon atom in the air become part of a starch atom in a carrot?

A carbon atom would become a starch molecule in a root hair by a chemical reaction known as photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process that changes light gained from the sun into energy.


What are atoms that have gained energy called?

excited state atoms


How is calorimetry related to the law of conservation of energy?

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed but remains constant in a given system. Therefore, wouldn't calorimetry make use of it because the energy gained/lost by the water would cancel out the energy lost/gained by the substance and result in no change overall?

An atom is in an excited state when it has its lowest energy?

No, when an atom is in an excited state, its electrons have gained energy, and they proceed to lose it when they fall back into their normal energy levels


How does chemistry related on the branches of sciences?

Chemists focus on the different ways substances combine or breakdown to form new substances. This occurs in lots of different situations. That is why biochemists study chemical reactions such as photosynthesis and respiration which occur in living things, for example, and geochemists are interested in how ores and minerals are formed in the Earth. To find answers to their questions chemists often have to use knowledge gained by other scientists such physicists and even astronomers. Scientists in other areas of science also use information gained by chemists.

How energy is stored in and released from ATP?

Through photosynthesis and/or cellular respiration. -anonymous18_K


Is energy from the ATP released in the cellular respiration?

Energy is released in cellular respiration. For example, imagine you were to eat a bowl of cereal and breathe oxygen. Enzymes would break down starch into glucose and other enzymes would break down the glucose into energy.


What percent of energy is gained by alternative energy?

About 55%to60% of energy is gained by alternative energy.


What stage of cellular respiration does not involve any carbon-based compounds as a reactant or product?

Photosynthesis comes in two stages, the first of which is light-dependent, while the second one is not. This second step takes the energy gained from the first step and uses it to create the sugars, the food for the plant.


Why is water good for plants?

They need it for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis consists of a chain of reactions, in which certain resources are needed and others are gained as a result. Plants need water, sunlight and carbon dioxide for the reaction. As a result plants produce sugar (= energy) and oxygen. So plants need water to be able to produce energy and to grow.


How many ATP molecules are gained?

In cellular respiration, by way of glycolysis, you gain 38 ATP molecules if Prokaryotic and 36 for Eukaryotic as 2 are used for energy during active transport.


Does energy lost equal energy gained?

no

How much energy is gained by 3 grams of ice when it changes to water?

No energy is gained. On the contrary, energy is required to make ice melt.


When a bond is formed is energy lost or gained?

give out energy


What energy is kinetic energy?

Energy gained by a body due to its motion is called Kinetic energy
