biochemical pathway


Phase of photosynthesis where light energy is converted to chemical in form of ATP?

The phases where light energy is converted into ATP are called light reactions. I don't know if you want information on what happens then or not, though.


Will a chemical reaction that asborbs energy happen with out a source of energy?

No, a chemical reaction that absorbs energy is called an endothermic reaction. The transfer of heat from the surrounds into the substance. In reactions, energy is always CONVERTED, not created which means that nothing can be converted i.e. heat to chemical if there is no heat or initial energy.


What does chemical energy mean in physics?

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.


How is energy converted into energy food?

Energy is converted into food molecules through the various chemical bond reactions that happen in the body of the living things.


In the light reactions of photosynthesis ight energy is converted into chemical energy in which organic molecules?

ATP and NADPH


What is the type of chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed?

Endothermic reactions.Endo- means 'inside' which is where the energy ends up.Exothermic reactions give off energy. Exo- means 'outside'. Think that a spider sheds an 'exo'skeleton, or a skin on the outside.


Can chemical reactions absorb energy?

yes they do,the reactions which absorb energy are called endothermic reaction.


Is it true or false that all chemical reactions require an initial input of energy called catalysis?

FalseAll chemical reactions require an initial input of energy called activation energy.


Chemical reactions that release energy do if occur or don't?

These are called exothermic reactions.


Chemical reactions that consume free energy are called?

These are endothermic reactions.


What chemical reaction release thermal energy?

only nuclear reactionsChemical reactions that release free energy are called exergonic reactions. Fire and cellular respiration are examples of exergonic reactions.
